The Republic of Riaaaa is a mid-sized, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, cynical population of 77 million Riaans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.7%.

The very strong Riaaaan economy, worth 5.63 trillion Riaa Republican Chevs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 73,078 Riaa Republican Chevs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 236,182 per year while the poor average 17,088, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, genetic researchers have been expelled, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Riaaaa's national animal is the NOT ON MIRAHEZE, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Riaaaa is ranked 156,288^th in the world and 33^rd in Fukuoka for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,117.69 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
