The Empire of Rhinocera is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Consul Tiberius with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 18.497 billion Rhinocerans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crete. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhinoceran economy, worth a remarkable 5,038 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 272,398 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 926,615 per year while the poor average 59,027, a ratio of 15.7 to 1.

Public executions just aren't the cheery spectacles they once were, the ingredients list for most food products covers the entire surface of the packaging, going on a diet invalidates your passport, and an increasing number of citizens believe the world is flat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhinocera's national animal is the rhinoceros, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rhinocera is ranked 38,342nd in the world and 1st in Panessos for Most Cultured, scoring 75 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
