The VC Republic State of Free Ravensburg is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Amadeus Freidrich with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 490 million Ravenians, all of whom are zombies, 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, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ravensburg Richtig. The average income tax rate is 52.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Free Ravenian economy, worth 51.9 trillion silvans a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,322 silvans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, citizens know never to accept cookies from strangers, school lessons are constantly interrupted by 'teacher needs a break' time, and Free Ravensburg has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Free Ravensburg's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Free Ravensburg is ranked 196,847^th in the world and 13^th in central europe for Most Avoided, scoring 0.82 on the Kardashian Reflex Score.
