The Kingdom of Resaaria is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Alexander with a fair hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 4.212 billion Resaarians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crita. The average income tax rate is 61.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Resaarian economy, worth 331 trillion Barhls a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,591 Barhls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The once prosperous capital is in utter decline, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, citizens insist that there's no law against standing downwind when marijuana crops are burned off, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Resaaria's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Resaaria is ranked 47,616th in the world and 911th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 154.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
