The Twix of Raider is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 24.039 billion Raiderians 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 enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Raideron. The average income tax rate is 61.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Raiderian economy, worth 74.6 trillion Raids a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 3,104 Raids, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Jails have become colloquially known as 'vampire houses', scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, a major religion has been named as Raider's national religion, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Raider in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raider's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is a major religion.

Raider is ranked 87,895^th in the world and 1^st in Raid for Nicest Citizens, with 14.16 average smiles per day.
