The Final Decision of Roshambeau is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Beau Two-out-of-three with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 13.752 billion Roshambeauans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paper Scissors Rock. The average income tax rate is 29.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Roshambeauan economy, worth 988 trillion flats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 71,892 flats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, fiscal policy hawks decry the sizable "panem et circenses" fund added to the public budget, Roshambeauan military drills look more like joint-Seven To Many exercises than anything else, and Paper Scissors Rock has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roshambeau's national animal is the gorilla, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is roshambo.

Roshambeau is ranked 109,220^th in the world and 9^th in Seven To Many for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,356.72 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
