The Republic of Rocketfuel47 is a colossal, genial nation, remarkable for its closed borders, frequent executions, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, devout population of 4.789 billion Rocketfuel47ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 62.6%.

The all-consuming Rocketfuel47ian economy, worth 399 trillion Rocketfuels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 83,306 Rocketfuels, with the richest citizens earning 9.0 times as much as the poorest.

Student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned Rocketfuelball fields, glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, and grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rocketfuel47's national animal is the Rocketfuel, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Rocketfuel47 is ranked 97,032^nd in the world and 2^nd in Bird lands for Smartest Citizens, with 37.13 quips per hour.
