The Invasion of Rain Delay is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Rose with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 30.816 billion Roseians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Invader Camp. The average income tax rate is 13.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rain Delayian economy, worth a remarkable 9,926 trillion Raids a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 322,118 Raids, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Rain Delayian tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation, Queen Rose reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, the nation's best artists are considered pretty easy to beat, and signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rain Delay's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Branch Davidian.

Rain Delay is ranked 3,180^th in the world and 2^nd in The Invaders for Highest Poor Incomes, with 188,570.3 Standard Monetary Units.
