The Homeland Defender of Ravania Belgica is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ambiorix with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, parental licensing program, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 26.79 billion Ravanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ravaniatwerpen. The average income tax rate is 77.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ravanian economy, worth a remarkable 5,159 trillion Claws 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, 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 impressive 192,575 Claws, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, polygamy is legal, Amnesty Interregional has condemned Ravania Belgica for ignoring crimes against humanity, and all beauty contests have been banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ravania Belgica's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Circle of the Raven.

Ravania Belgica is ranked 19,353^rd in the world and 5^th in belgium for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.25 law-abiding acts per hour.
