The Constitutional Monarchy of Rushkaville is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Joseph Conrad with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 39.7 billion Rushkavilleans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rushkaville City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Rushkavillean economy, worth an astonishing 11,409 trillion Fun Bucks a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 287,393 Fun Bucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Members of Parliament operate under a PAYE scheme, visitors to Graffiti Warrens National Park are offered a complimentary tetanus vaccination, welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, and many suspect that the 'Whinny The Plop' children's magazine contains covert criticism of Joseph Conrad. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rushkaville's national animal is the Turkey Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Rushkaville is ranked 291st in the world and 12th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 202.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
