The Republic of Raul63 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.675 billion Raul63ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 73.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Raul63ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,680 trillion francs a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 218,980 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government regularly reassures citizens that there are no monsters under their beds, warning signs caution Raul63ians where they may fall off 'the edge of the world', organ donation is compulsory, and lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raul63's national animal is the penguin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Raul63 is ranked 334,064^th in the world and 4,868^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Cultured, scoring 23 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
