The Most Serene Republic of Riize is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 569 million Riizeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 36.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Riizean economy, worth 20.1 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,307 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Riize is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, Riizeans believe manners maketh the leader, and Riize has designated Riize City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riize's national animal is the porpoise, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Riize is ranked 231,797^th in the world and 3,114^th in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -4.45 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
