The Filthiest Homeless Shelter of RITHS is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Joe Camel with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 4.268 billion RITHSians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Tenderloin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.7%.

The frighteningly efficient RITHSian economy, worth 900 trillion 40 Ounce Beers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 210,940 40 Ounce Beers, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

The population's jaw muscles put sharks to shame, relations with Merovingia are as cold as RITHS's high-security cell blocks, the government spends billions to protect RITHS from a disaster that is one in a million, and hell is not always other people. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. RITHS's national animal is the Homeless Drinker, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is a hard night of drinking.

RITHS is ranked 87,076^th in the world and 1^st in The Magistyrium for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,387.67 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
