The Working Colony of Reseda Island V is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Iron Rebel with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working, democratic population of 23.496 billion Reseda Islanders enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zweinstein. The average income tax rate is 52.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Resedan economy, worth a remarkable 1,341 trillion Plasma Kronor a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 57,107 Plasma Kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Polygamy is legal, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and The Iron Rebel has just been declared ruler of Reseda Island V in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Reseda Island V's national animal is the Plasma Falcon and its national religion is GOD CLOCKism.

Reseda Island V is ranked 121,729^th in the world and 14^th in The Universe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.53 law-abiding acts per hour.
