The Principality of Rieti is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 23.107 billion Rietians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.6%.
The powerhouse Rietian economy, worth 976 trillion lires a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is 42,280 lires, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 145,053 per year while the poor average 9,044, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.
Voting is compulsory. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Rieti's national animal is the bear.
Rieti is ranked 111,701st in the world and 2,793rd in The North Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 20.91 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
