The Democratic Republic of Rasiye is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program, state-planned economy, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.522 billion Rasiyeans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 28.5%.

The all-consuming Rasiyean economy, worth 594 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 107,599 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Sex changes are routinely performed at Rasiye's hospitals, the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rasiye's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rasiye is ranked 48,644^th in the world and 2,944^th in Osiris for Highest Poor Incomes, with 53,829.35 Standard Monetary Units.
