The Republic of ROSAT is a mid-sized, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning fox population. The hard-working population of 80 million ROSATians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.7%.

The ROSATian economy, worth 3.59 trillion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 44,846 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ROSAT's national animal is the fox.

ROSAT is ranked 91,087^th in the world and 26^th in Space Telescopes for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 85.69 on the Hayek Index.
