The Democratic Socialist Empire of Raccooniah is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Mark Rubio with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 7.589 billion Raccoons have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kingston. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Raccooniahian economy, worth a remarkable 1,360 trillion Dubloons a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 179,311 Dubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

GDP growth is the preferred altar of national worship, the only thing that can pin down a "superhero" is red tape, a passport is literally priceless, and the Super-Spud Cinematic Universe is breaking box office records. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raccooniah's national animal is the Raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Southern Raccooniahan Orthodoxy.

Raccooniah is ranked 265,711th in the world and 64th in Saint Helene for Most Patriotic, with 0.95 flags saluted per person per day.
