The Self Destructive Tendencies of Ramlethal is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Ramlethal Lupercal with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.248 billion Ramlethalians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uhreik. The average income tax rate is 79.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Ramlethalian economy, worth 841 trillion marks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 160,301 marks, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

The golden rule is to never let an economic crisis go to waste, young girls and senior citizens alike can be spotted wearing colourful short shorts, legal contracts aren't worth the paper they're written on, and scrapyards are filled with Ramlethal Lupercal's face. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ramlethal's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Wolf Cults.

Ramlethal is ranked 299,344th in the world and 26th in Abraxas for Nicest Citizens, with 0.48 average smiles per day.
