The Republic of High roller is a tiny, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The quiet, industrious population of 18 million High rollerians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 43.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The fair High rollerian economy, worth 598 billion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Retail, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,243 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

When shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Leader is a silly poophead, tree farms across the nation are overrun by clipboard-wielding biologists, and polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. High roller's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

High roller is ranked 315,076^th in the world and 33^rd in Project Casino for Largest Populations, with 18.0 million capita.
