The Federation of Ranoa is a large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 92 million Ranoans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21.0%.

The very strong Ranoan economy, worth 5.67 trillion Ranoan Notes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,669 Ranoan Notes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 186,121 per year while the poor average 15,920, a ratio of 11.7 to 1.

Dessert dishes make up the Ranoan breakfast menu, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ranoa's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ranoa is ranked 93,950^th in the world and 19^th in ScuffiaProjectia for Safest, scoring 85.17 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
