The Royal Republic of Raimell is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Guardian Knight Donelond with an even hand, and remarkable for its fear of technology, triple-decker prams, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 5.329 billion Raimellons enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Williamsport. The average income tax rate is 70.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Raimellon economy, worth 558 trillion Dabloons a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 104,877 Dabloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, and clergy never mention brand names for fear of losing their government subsidies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raimell's national animal is the Pelican, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Raimell is ranked 112,320th in the world and 12th in Angelic League for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,271.47 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
