The United Mangrove Archipelago of Ransium is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Scipio with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, prohibition of alcohol, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 38.104 billion Ransites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Environment, with Healthcare, Social Policy, and Industry also on the agenda, while Education and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mangrove City. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Ransiumian economy, worth a remarkable 8,133 trillion Cloyns a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 213,443 Cloyns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's green cities are indeed concrete jungles, the hit new medical TV show "Home" prominently features the brand of painkiller the lead doctor is addicted to, academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs, and factories place endangered birds in their rafters in pursuit of government protections. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ransium's national animal is the Tiger Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Mangrovism.

Ransium is ranked 306,671st in the world and 317th in Forest for Most Cultured, scoring -476 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
