The Kingdom of Rarungan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Maharaj Nathakusuma II with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, devout population of 6.823 billion Rarunganis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bhagawanta. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Rarunganian economy, worth 530 trillion Rarungan Kepengs a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,709 Rarungan Kepengs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Carefully-staged grief is displayed by Maharaj Nathakusuma II after national disasters, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, interest rates mysteriously drop whenever the CBR Governor goes house hunting, and children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rarungan's national animal is the Reef Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Boda.

Rarungan is ranked 254,414^th in the world and 3^rd in United Mandaran States for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.74 kickbacks per hour.
