The United Kingdoms of Neo-Routhengard is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Michel Nicole Demetrius with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.944 billion Routhengardians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edel Garden. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Neo-Routhengardian economy, worth 878 trillion xanthousites a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 222,829 xanthousites, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The seats at the back of the parliament are reserved for indigenous ministers, politicians tend to speak more loudly and slowly these days, the government is more interested in identifying problems than fixing them, and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neo-Routhengard's national animal is the snowshoe rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Psaltery of the Heavens.

Neo-Routhengard is ranked 81,270^th in the world and 3,151^st in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,011.99 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
