The Federal Republic of Rhind is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.286 billion Rhindians 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, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhindian economy, worth a remarkable 2,713 trillion Microluses 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 Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 166,596 Microluses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has begun selling heroin and ecstasy to help fund its projects, a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, Rhindians believe manners maketh the leader, and recognizing the Rhindian flag qualifies you for citizenship. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhind's national animal is the Felis silvestris, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rhind is ranked 2,899^th in the world and 1^st in XLII for Smartest Citizens, with 160.04 quips per hour.
