The Grand Reich of Riveti is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Kaiser Vossen with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, public floggings, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 16.668 billion Rivetish are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vontz. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rivetish economy, worth a remarkable 2,328 trillion Jaegs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 139,709 Jaegs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's new Mylab space station is notorious for being the loneliest place above the planet, the Rivetish delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, and nine-year-olds' chat logs are scoured for evidence of radicalization. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riveti's national animal is the Black Panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Originism.

Riveti is ranked 21,426^th in the world and 12^th in Renegade Islands Alliance for Highest Food Quality, scoring 112.59 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
