The Armed Republic of REALigion is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by The Great Samorianist Priest with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, enslaved workforce, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.694 billion REALigionians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Samorian city. The average income tax rate is 54.9%.

The powerhouse REALigionian economy, worth 133 trillion Faiths a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,659 Faiths, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign policy is mostly just to smile and hope for the best, The Great Samorianist Priest's speeches are beloved by insomniacs, radio stations are forbidden to play anything with too much drum or bass, and Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in REALigion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. REALigion's national animal is the GOD, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Samorianism.

REALigion is ranked 46,825^th in the world and 3^rd in Ethanopia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,141.03 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
