The Republic of Rich poor people is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its deadly medical pandemics, disturbing lack of elderly people, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8 billion Rich poor peopleans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Rich poor peoplean economy, worth a remarkable 5,961 trillion currencies 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. 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 a breathtaking 745,224 currencies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police have been reduced to using duct tape instead of handcuffs following further cutbacks, builders across Rich poor people are blocked up with orders for new public loos, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Rich poor people, and Leader's iHouse is so intelligent that it manages its own social media accounts. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Rich poor people's national animal is the animal, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rich poor people is ranked 208,922nd in the world and 50th in Vickenian experiment incubator for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 717.63 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
