The Wandering Soul of Raunder is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Gilbert O'Malley with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 23.137 billion Raunderians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Social Policy, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sennia. The average income tax rate is 43.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Raunderian economy, worth 471 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,373 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has become a pariah for giving pirates letters of marque, women are ordered home to reproduce for the glory of the Wandering Soul, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime is relatively low. Raunder's national animal is the lion and its national religion is Deism.

Raunder is ranked 57,159th in the world and 1st in Badhistory for Most Corrupt Governments, with 32.07 kickbacks per hour.
