The Republic of Ridehale is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Victor Anderson-Gula with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 9.594 billion Ridehaleans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Major Weston King. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ridehalean economy, worth 989 trillion Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,109 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, teachers are skilled at leaving no evidence of child cruelty, politicians can be condescending (which by the way means "showing an attitude of patronising superiority"), and the price of freedom is about half a million Dollars. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ridehale's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ridehale is ranked 190,962^nd in the world and 6,562^nd in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 19,178.45 Standard Monetary Units.
