The Empire of Rushav is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Dan Elkin with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, devout population of 1.662 billion Rushavians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karvin. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Rushavian economy, worth 184 trillion Zyres a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,039 Zyres, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People are now buried six inches under, online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Rushav, foreign heads of state have taken out restraining orders against Rushavian ambassadors, and the best-of-the-best athletes have been replaced by the best-of-the-mediocre. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rushav's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Confucianism.

Rushav is ranked 285,578^th in the world and 143^rd in Aesica for Largest Black Market, with 52.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
