The Commonwealth of Ruppelia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Premier Tandri with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 2.19 billion Ruppelians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sungate. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Ruppelian economy, worth 228 trillion ergocredits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 104,145 ergocredits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances, the government has started a campaign to crack down on road rage and encourage alternate means of commuting, the navy plans patrols according to how many pubs nearby ports have, and a government program is underway to revitalize Ruppelia's beaches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ruppelia's national animal is the Spinner Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Antitheism.
Ruppelia is ranked 5,278th in the world and 48th in Refugia for Safest, scoring 130.38 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
