The Komplainers Kingdom of Rantistan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Calvin I with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, cynical population of 41.075 billion Rantistanis are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Treefort. The average income tax rate is 71.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Rantistanian economy, worth a remarkable 3,194 trillion biffs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 77,762 biffs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, large-girthed charity workers assign themselves healthy wages for their work with starving children, superfoods are often seen as supervillains, and an IT mega-corporation has a patent pending on the rectangle. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rantistan's national animal is the stuffed tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Calvinism.
Rantistan is ranked 36,241st in the world and 9th in Free States of Gaia for Most Cultured, scoring 76 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
