The Queen's State of Rupab is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 22.504 billion Rupabians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.
The very strong Rupabian economy, worth 918 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 40,826 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 277,570 per year while the poor average 2,193, a ratio of 126 to 1.
Voting is voluntary, punitive tariffs protect local industry, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, and Rupab has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Rupab's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Rupab is ranked 289,951st in the world and 8th in Paramaribo for Lowest Crime Rates, with 31.61 law-abiding acts per hour.
