The Federal Republic of Rathoria is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Governor Matthew Gibson with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 7.812 billion Rathorians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Icesium. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rathorian economy, worth a remarkable 1,122 trillion Eucriotian Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 143,687 Eucriotian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces, people's charity begins and ends at home, government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet, and the only Maxxmas gift frontline troops receive from officers is a bullet with the enemy's name on it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rathoria's national animal is the Blue-backed Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rathoria is ranked 11,929^th in the world and 14^th in Cape of Good Hope for Lowest Crime Rates, with 97.95 law-abiding acts per hour.
