The Republic of Raul76 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, zero percent divorce rate, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.084 billion Raul76ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 83.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Raul76ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,504 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 247,325 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 733,210 per year while the poor average 65,488, a ratio of 11.2 to 1.
Leader reduces citizens' commute times by giving away their homes, airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, citizens who leave the nation for work are instantly charged with treason, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raul76's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Raul76 is ranked 12,232nd in the world and 310th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 97.47 law-abiding acts per hour.
