The New Intergalactic Hegemony of Rahoris is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Elfanxia the Greater with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, fear of technology, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 20.993 billion Rahorasians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anukarabis. The average income tax rate is 97.5%.

The powerhouse Rahorisian economy, worth a remarkable 2,619 trillion Osirs a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Information Technology industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 124,793 Osirs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks, one can wake up in Rahoris and have breakfast in Bigtopia, the police strictly enforce off-limit zones for tourists, and doctors are encouraged to 'pull the plug' any time the government has a budget crisis. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rahoris's national animal is the Wolfhound, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rahoris is ranked 12,146th in the world and 4th in Star Trek for Most Secular, with 91.25 Atheism Rate.
