Lands administered (i.e., autonomous vassal states under Roman rule): BitingReality, Roame (administrative capital of MuchBoards region), RomeV, Constantinople-Byz, Hispania-Romano, the Republic of the Bactrians, Roman Gaul. The latter five are part of the Roman-controlled region of "Roman Empire W" (OOC note: all seven countries and RomeW are all seperate NS nations that I created).
Economy: tributes from vassal states, tourism, some mining in uranium, silver, gold and marble is just beginning in the SC.
Trade: mostly internal, though there is some interest in outside investment.
Historical Background: RomeW (which stands for "Rome West") is one of the last surviving remants of the Old Roman Empire and is technically a continuation of it who has spent the last several centuries rebuilding its former glory. For the last century or so, it has taken a decidedly friendly, pro-democratic and pro-socialist stance and has seen the Empire grow in size, in power and in prestige. It may not be yet a major world power but it intends to be and hopes to leave a positive impact on the world.
