The Fiefdom of Rhina Butterfly is a huge, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 418 million Rhina Butterflyians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 18.5%.

The strong Rhina Butterflyian economy, worth 20.0 trillion ryous a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 47,755 ryous, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

The saying 'break a leg' is now taken literally, euthanasia is legal, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, and citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked. Crime is moderate. Rhina Butterfly's national animal is the bird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Rhina Butterfly is ranked 106,032^nd in the world and 567^th in Remembrance for Most Corrupt Governments, with 11 kickbacks per hour.
