The United Socialist State of Rhudiland is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Diede Lindholm-Maertenssen with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 5.982 billion Rhædenads enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belengraad. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rhædenad economy, worth 699 trillion Rhudiland Lithiums a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 117,005 Rhudiland Lithiums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's museums are real penny-pinchers, military pistols are more secure than the national treasury, children's TV shows are having a gay old time, and in a desperate bid for cheap airfare Rhædenads can be seen jogging in a rubber suit just before flying. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhudiland's national animal is the Vulture, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Rhudiland is ranked 7,093^rd in the world and 271^st in The Communist Bloc for Nicest Citizens, with 40.2 average smiles per day.
