The Department of Rhone is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Stéphane Bouillon with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 25.15 billion Rhodaniens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lyon. The average income tax rate is 46.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Rhodanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,457 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 57,942 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Short shrift is being given to applications for political asylum from illegal immigrants, government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains, the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", and children prefer to begin their day with push-ups rather than breakfast. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhone's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.
Rhone is ranked 228,478th in the world and 61st in Department Store for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -0.89 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
