The Dictatorship of The Roach Emperor is a small, genial nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 29 million Roach Emperorians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling Roach Emperorian economy, worth 531 billion Ahns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, and Retail. Average income is 18,310 Ahns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, and preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Roach Emperor's national animal is the Roach.

The Roach Emperor is ranked 240,287^th in the world and 10^th in Regionate for Highest Poor Incomes, with 17,090.1 Standard Monetary Units.
