The Republic of RSCA157 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.798 billion RSCA157ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 76.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient RSCA157ian economy, worth 957 trillion cards a year, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 108,864 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

People are arrested for looking too sternly at whales, the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, the nation's politicians are acknowledged as the most polite in the region to the dismay of comedians everywhere, and the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. RSCA157's national animal is the stonks, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

RSCA157 is ranked 47,170^th in the world and 276^th in racoda for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.03 law-abiding acts per hour.
