The Principality of Royal Nigaria is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Princes with an iron fist, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, frequent executions, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.202 billion Nigarians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osas. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Royal Nigarian economy, worth 856 trillion Rokas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 138,066 Rokas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Government negotiators never forget to say "pretty please" when begging for custody of its criminals, the big red machine has ground to a halt, Osas has become the number one destination for urban exploration in The Free Nations Region, and the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Royal Nigaria's national animal is the Salmon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Zahanish.

Royal Nigaria is ranked 26,671st in the world and 32nd in The Free Nations Region for Most Cultured, scoring 83 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
