The Holy Empire of Nova Orientalis Roma is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Constantine IV Calderon with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 5.633 billion Romans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Constantinople. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The very strong Nova Orientalis Roman economy, worth 384 trillion Soloduses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 68,327 Soloduses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 265,982 per year while the poor average 11,994, a ratio of 22.2 to 1.

Engaged partners detail their fiancés' private lives in detail to prurient bureaucrats, Constantine IV Calderon has just been declared ruler of Nova Orientalis Roma in an international press conference, Orthodox Christianity has been named as Nova Orientalis Roma's national religion, and battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force. Nova Orientalis Roma's national animal is the Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Nova Orientalis Roma is ranked 172,644^th in the world and 32^nd in Byzantine Christendom for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.08 law-abiding acts per hour.
