The Federal Republic of The Rega is a titanic, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.949 billion Regans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. The average income tax rate is 63.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Regan economy, worth a remarkable 1,709 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,173 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is avowedly secular, the government is raising the stakes on mental health to beat the odds of addiction, police officers outnumber pigeons in Alexandria, and the government has spread itself thin. Crime is totally unknown. The Rega's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tolerance.

The Rega is ranked 321,111^th in the world and 2,546^th in the West Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
