The Republic of Raven-eye is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 7.224 billion Raven-eyeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 10.8%.

The strong Raven-eyean economy, worth 519 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 71,901 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Annulments are on the rise as couples discover their ancestors were born in the same hospitals, stolen Reuben sandwiches are met with detailed and thorough police investigations, psychiatrists bizarrely accompany Leader to meetings with foreign heads of state, and unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves. Crime is well under control. Raven-eye's national animal is the raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Raven-eye is ranked 133,643^rd in the world and 6,636^th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 797.45 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
