The Democratic States of Ralshia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Nibohagsib with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 14.061 billion Ralshians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mozi. The average income tax rate is 52.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ralshian economy, worth a remarkable 2,814 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 200,194 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Claiming that "my cousin said it was legal" is a common courtroom defense, the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics, there's an aura of pseudoscience around academia, and the government's new priority is citizens' access to cat videos. Crime is totally unknown. Ralshia's national animal is the Badger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ralshia is ranked 32,309^th in the world and 39^th in Equilism for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,684.15 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
