The Rogue Nation of Symerron is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 97 million Symerroons enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Symerronian economy, worth 2.09 trillion Doubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is 21,584 Doubloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many whiskies taste suspiciously like automobile radiators, criminals identify as innocent, brain injury is seen as a desirable outcome rather than a side effect of contact sports, and games of cops and robbers typically end in at least one fatal shooting. Crime is totally unknown. Symerron's national animal is the Frigatebird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Symerron is ranked 30,634^th in the world and 11^th in Imperatus for Nicest Citizens, with 20.14 average smiles per day.
