The Unconscious Dimensions of Reality Warping is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Sir Nicholas the Great with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 4.104 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although Education and Defence are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Galactus. The average income tax rate is 77%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

The government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, Reality Warping's famous countrysides are shrouded by wind farms, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and the government funds large training centres to turn Rocs into functioning members of society. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Reality Warping's national animal is the Roc, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the thought.

Reality Warping is ranked 11th in Space Sector RPRA and 97,166th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -30 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
