The Federation of Raspberry Heaven is a huge, genial nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 697 million Raspberrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Raspberry City. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Raspberrian economy, worth 39.5 trillion Andagis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,650 Andagis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, helium balloons lift the nation's spacecraft towards the heavens, the education system is being cleansed of all corporate influence, and getting milk from the local corner store no longer requires donning advanced hiking gear. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raspberry Heaven's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Raspberry Heaven is ranked 208,539th in the world and 161st in MHBs New Earth for Most Ignorant Citizens, with 2.33 missed references per hour.
