The Mighty Union of Rasutafia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Sarskia with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, infamous sell-swords, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 14.005 billion Rasutafians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tatsuna. The average income tax rate is 99.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Rasutafian economy, worth a remarkable 4,438 trillion Doosableas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, 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 amazing 316,918 Doosableas, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Male med students learning female anatomy do so with their eyes tightly closed, war criminals are given full state funerals, the nation's orphanages and maternity wards have been nicknamed 'the Killbot Factories', and Sarskia's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rasutafia's national animal is the Zebra, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Talranity.

Rasutafia is ranked 13,020th in the world and 10th in Lone Wolves United for Highest Poor Incomes, with 111,771.11 Standard Monetary Units.
