The Fanciful Tales of Refuge Isle is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Arch-Administrator Luca with a fair hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, hatred of cheese, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 7.469 billion Refugi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Environment, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Defense is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Admin Tower. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Refugi economy, worth a remarkable 1,843 trillion planets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 246,831 planets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Royalist is the most offensive slur in the Refugi language, sea side cafes are required by law to close during summer, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, and political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Refuge Isle's national animal is the SimpleBot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Zyqxuwy.

Refuge Isle is ranked 303^rd in the world and 2^nd in Refugia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 33,955.35 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
