The Republic of Holy Ramen Empire is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its daily referendums, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.056 billion Holy Ramen Empireans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 70.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Holy Ramen Empirean economy, worth 372 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,592 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political clichés like "band-aid solutions" and "adrenaline shots to the economy" are headed for the dumpster, the nation is known as the cheapskates of The North Pacific, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Holy Ramen Empire City to enjoy their national art, and translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Ramen Empire's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ramenism.

Holy Ramen Empire is ranked 68,718^th in the world and 2,010^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.27 law-abiding acts per hour.
