The Federation of Rahatio is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.401 billion Rahatioans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 57.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Rahatioan economy, worth 197 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 140,391 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Councils up and down the country wrangle over legal matters, airports offer up-charged enemas, all beauty contests have been banned, and signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rahatio's national animal is the falcon.

Rahatio is ranked 251,512^th in the world and 112^th in RPS for Least Corrupt Governments, with 91.33 percentage of bribes refused.
