The Parliamentary Republic of Republicada is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lucas Finnegan with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 3.709 billion Ravencians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ravencia. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ravencian economy, worth 484 trillion Nordmarks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,554 Nordmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, residents of new housing subdivisions complain about the total absence of supermarkets and restaurants, when their backs are against the walls Ravencians look out for gay men, and superfoods are often seen as supervillains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republicada's national animal is the polar bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Republicada is ranked 249,480^th in the world and 3,770^th in The North Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 7.43 Obesity Rate.
