The Dominion of Riberiyn Forestry is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, prohibition of alcohol, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 97 million Riberiyns 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 39.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Riberiyn economy, worth 2.82 trillion Rings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,114 Rings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who tease dwarfs are being cut down to size, the best doughnut stores have been taken over by foreign police officers, the government seizes the property of the recently deceased, and every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Riberiyn. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riberiyn Forestry's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Riberiyn Forestry is ranked 179,558^th in the world and 8^th in Riberiyn for Highest Poor Incomes, with 22,137.48 Standard Monetary Units.
