The Republic of Rozaelia is a very large, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 206 million Rozaelians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 9.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Rozaelian economy, worth 14.5 trillion aureuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 70,250 aureuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, knock-knock jokes regularly get removed from websites for being too edgy, the contraband cigarette trade is lighting up across Rozaelia, and ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rozaelia's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Rozaelia is ranked 7,301^st in the world and 3^rd in Merkopa for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 9,297.79 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
