Welcome Remus Caesar



We welcome The Holy Empire of Remus Caesar (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=Remus+Caesar), a United Nations member, as the 212th member nation state in 01 Eastern Roman Empire Region.

The Holy Empire of Remus Caesar is a small, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 8 million 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.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Defence, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 50%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Information Technology.
Voting is voluntary and military spending is on the increase. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Remus Caesar's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the roman coin.
