The Socialist Kingdom of Rhenna is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Livia Morgenstern with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.239 billion Rens are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zena. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Renin economy, worth 588 trillion Rhens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 181,703 Rhens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, dictionary sales have hit an all-time high, and the nation threatens sanctions on islands only visible at low tide. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhenna's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secular.

Rhenna is ranked 287,929th in the world and 323rd in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -18.38 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
