The Republic of RSCA217 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, frequent executions, and daily referendums. The cynical, devout population of 2.92 billion RSCA217ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 45.5%.

The strong RSCA217ian economy, worth 191 trillion cards a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,701 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

There has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, retirement homes are filled with foreign war criminals, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, and in distant lands the nation is known as a lovely place that was even better in the good old days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. RSCA217's national animal is the stonks, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

RSCA217 is ranked 68,688^th in the world and 173^rd in RSCA for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,013.9 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
