The United States of Rogue River is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Angela Pepper with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, flagrant waste-dumping, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 12.016 billion Riverians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sayora. The average income tax rate is 91.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Riverian economy, worth a remarkable 2,901 trillion Federal Florins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 241,448 Federal Florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, sporting events are the biggest source of funding for Riverian schools, Goldilocks has found a lucrative career as a zoning consultant, and bridge salesmen line up for blocks to make their cases at Angela Pepper's office. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rogue River's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Visni.

Rogue River is ranked 90,832^nd in the world and 48^th in Forest for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,331.68 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
