The Commonwealth of Rumon is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by the State Council with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 9.747 billion Rumonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rahan. The average income tax rate is 53.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Rumonian economy, worth 864 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,720 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

It's often raining men (hallelujah) in Rahan, the word "sexagenarian" has taken on a whole new meaning, soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, and real estate agencies are being replaced by naval recruitment offices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rumon's national animal is the Flummoxed Politician, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rumon is ranked 276,026^th in the world and 14^th in Osagh for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -5.73 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
