This nation is a sockpuppet nation of The Democratic Socialist State of Edgelandia.
The Alcoholic State of Rugai is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Salamander Man with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 1.573 billion Rugaians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 78.2%.
The very strong Rugaian economy, worth 96.4 trillion gais a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Cheese Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 61,290 gais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
Homeowners are evicted to make way for new runways, inter-species marriages are ignored by the government, government officials go door-to-door educating about the dangers of pseudoscience, and the RBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rugai's national animal is the potato, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gainess.
