The Commonwealth of Rightport is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Prime Minister Pilot Scott with an even hand, and notable for its restrictive gun laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.078 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Defence. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nationville city. The average income tax rate is 99%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The arms industry is strictly regulated, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, the nation's massive battleships are often mistaken for islands, and military spending is on the increase. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rightport's national animal is the German Shepard Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Rightport dollar RPD.

Rightport is ranked 43rd in The East Pacific and 869th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 164 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
