The Republic of Rice Insun is a titanic, orderly nation, renowned for its closed borders, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 20.084 billion Rice Insuns are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Camphor Tree. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.7%.

The all-consuming Edible economy, worth a remarkable 1,920 trillion acorns a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is 95,629 acorns, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.

The revelation that people were sexist in the past is apparently front page news, airship use has soared while property values beneath their routes have plummeted, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", and the health budget has been diverted into prolonging Leader's life. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rice Insun's national animal is the totoro, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Rice Insun is ranked 28,813^th in the world and 5^th in Free Japan for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 22,115.61 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
