The Holy Empire of Raflantis is a small, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 29 million Raflantiano are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The developing Raflantician economy, worth 870 billion Ringals a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,011 Ringals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs, girls who wear lipstick are berated for pandering to male gazes, citizens volunteer for tax audits to avoid the 80-page Practical Assessment Survey Tool On Religions, and drug distribution is tightly controlled by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raflantis's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Raflantis is ranked 311,604th in the world and 273rd in Eurth for Largest Populations, with 29.0 million capita.
