The Bureaucratic Mess of Renoa is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Rhys Powell with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.428 billion Renoans 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lee Island. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The powerhouse Renoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,405 trillion Juneaus a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,679 Juneaus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, the government is deliberately installing bloatware onto computers, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Renoa's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Renoa is ranked 131,292^nd in the world and 4^th in United Alliances for Most Primitive, scoring -145.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
