The Republic of RB098 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 7.728 billion RB098ians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 19.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient RB098ian economy, worth 327 trillion marks a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,375 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. RB098's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

RB098 is ranked 192,901^st in the world and 6,835^th in Suspicious for Most Primitive, scoring -78.1 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
