The Dragoon Realm of Ramlethal is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Draguzhin with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 2.02 billion Ramlethalians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uhreik. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Ramlethalian economy, worth 265 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 131,207 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, patients often wonder which is more annoying: their excruciating pain or their doctor incessantly praying over it, edutainment video games are taking Ramlethal's students to the next level, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Uhreik Times is sold out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ramlethal's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ramlethal is ranked 277,518th in the world and 336th in Lone Wolves United for Most Primitive, scoring -180.92 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
