The Kingdom of Rhie is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Furei Raitsu with a fair hand, and renowned for its vat-grown people, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.309 billion Rhieans 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lanh. The average income tax rate is 83.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rhiean economy, worth 142 trillion Delars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,863 Delars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Souvenir shops that sell alphorns are taking advantage of gullible tourists, referenda are held for every conceivable government action, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and engaged partners detail their fiancés' private lives in detail to prurient bureaucrats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhie's national animal is the leafy sea dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is all.

Rhie is ranked 228,674^th in the world and 834^th in 10000 Islands for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens, with 40.38 Whatever.
