The Isle of Rakata is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Lord Yair Orsaa with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, devout population of 6.221 billion Rakatans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lehon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The strong Rakatan economy, worth 450 trillion barzels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 72,350 barzels, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.

Lord Yair Orsaa has just been declared ruler of Rakata in an international press conference, Rakata has designated Lehon as its capital city, cheap textbooks have replaced coasters at college ragers, and the military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks".
