The Republic of Raegis is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by High Consul Torbjorn with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, humorless population of 23.195 billion Ręgesians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saexia. The average income tax rate is 9.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ręgesian economy, worth a remarkable 5,704 trillion Credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 245,937 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies, the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, and saying "don't do anything that High Consul Torbjorn wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Raegis's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ręgesian Paganism.
Raegis is ranked 73,210th in the world and 3,316th in Balder for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 412.09 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
