The United Socialist States of Republic of Rusana is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Commisar Archon Exile with an even hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 6.812 billion Rusanas are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grande Ralin. The average income tax rate is 67.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Republic of Rusanan economy, worth 356 trillion Runins a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,331 Runins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

If you go into the woods today you're sure of a big surprise, economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, the RXN information hour is a guaranteed cure for insomnia, and people are bored of easy crossword puzzles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republic of Rusana's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Republic of Rusana is ranked 298,330^th in the world and 421^st in The Communist Bloc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -11.61 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
