The Cannibalistic Wasteland of ReeK is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Kim Don Zeus with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 18.61 billion Cunning Horis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The relatively small, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ile Du Haast. The average income tax rate is 10.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hori economy, worth a remarkable 3,983 trillion Aborted Foetuses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 214,051 Aborted Foetuses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Workers tend to schedule naps during all-hands meetings, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, sharks are enjoying their deliveries of canned food, and motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. ReeK's national animal is the Retired Porn Star, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Easter Worshipophobia.

ReeK is ranked 257,116^th in the world and 9,780^th in The East Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring -25.5 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
