The Empire of Rey is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Empress Rey Palpatine with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.112 billion Reyians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperial Center. The average income tax rate is 34.3%.

The strong Reyian economy, worth 186 trillion compressors a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 59,986 compressors, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, the government expresses surprisingly intense opinions on the use of whip pans, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, and military spending recently hit a new high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rey's national animal is the porg and its national religion is Sith-worship.

Rey is ranked 30,065^th in the world and 5^th in Galactic Republic for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 52.44 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
