The 🏵️ Aesthetic Monarchy 🏵️ of Rylland is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Frederick XIII with a fair hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 778 million Ryllanders are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Education, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osmarch. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Ryllandic economy, worth 96.8 trillion Heiliger Schwan Marks a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 124,453 Heiliger Schwan Marks, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 813,081 per year while the poor average 7,512, a ratio of 108 to 1.

Claiming that "my cousin said it was legal" is a common courtroom defense, Osmarch is a police state during international summits, grannies get pulled over for knitting pullovers while driving, and colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Ryllandic Liberator". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rylland's national animal is the Giant Antler Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rylland is ranked 273,995th in the world and 499th in Far East Oriental Federation for Highest Poor Incomes, with 7,512.63 Standard Monetary Units.
