The Republic of Riceplace Founder is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.531 billion Riceplace Founderians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of TUNICFACE-CFCAPT City. The average income tax rate is 47.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Riceplace Founderian economy, worth 397 trillion iures a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,720 iures, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Anti-riot police are dispatched whenever two elderly ladies gather to complain that prices have increased, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, most people suffer from some form of hearing loss, and tuba players are paid to quietly whisper into their instruments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riceplace Founder's national animal is the eruiore, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Riceplace Founder is ranked 51,713^th in the world and 1^st in Riceplace for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
