The Federal Republic of Rafiland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Unknown with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.755 billion Rafilanders hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Menrva. The average income tax rate is 45.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rafilandian economy, worth 186 trillion Plumas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 106,234 Plumas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Political speeches that drill deep into bureaucratic fine detail could be said to be a little boring, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, and much of Rafiland's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Rafiland's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Rafiland is ranked 57,182^nd in the world and 2,222^nd in The North Pacific for Highest Drug Use, scoring 89.2 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
