The White Rose of Ruby X Weiss is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Weiss Schnee with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 9.801 billion Ruby X Weissians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beacon. The average income tax rate is 18.9%.

The powerhouse Ruby X Weissian economy, worth 762 trillion liens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is 77,766 liens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, and Jennifer Government is a bestseller. Crime is well under control. Ruby X Weiss's national animal is the fox and its national religion is Violetism.
