The Equinoxial Drifting Pinhead of Ragaskan is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 13.819 billion enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass -- juggles the competing demands of Social Equality, Education, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the floe. The average income tax rate is 7%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, voting is voluntary, the nation leads Philosophy 115 in per capita stalking, and the poor are often seen pale and dizzy after selling their blood to make ends meet. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown. Ragaskan's national animal is the Sula dactylatra, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is you, and its currency is the swap.

Ragaskan is ranked 38th in Philosophy 115 and 45,579th in the world for Most Extreme, scoring 20 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
