The Federated State of Rainengrad is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Comrade Kegelkop with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 22.15 billion Rainengradians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Faraberline. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Rainengradian economy, worth a remarkable 9,821 trillion Lexells a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 443,408 Lexells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, elderly citizens regularly buy posh multimillion-Lexell mansions, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, and the military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces". Crime is totally unknown. Rainengrad's national animal is the soltegu, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Zonneregenisme.

Rainengrad is ranked 327,984^th in the world and 4,758^th in The North Pacific for Least Corrupt Governments, with 13.88 percentage of bribes refused.
