The Forest of Rain-Delay is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 11.169 billion Rain-Delayians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Camp Bisco. The average income tax rate is 59.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rain-Delayian economy, worth a remarkable 1,163 trillion Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 104,181 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in Leader's bedroom, the election for Leader's office's janitor is heating up, and you're only as old as you feel. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rain-Delay's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Rain-Delay is ranked 37,759^th in the world and 2,508^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 78.65 law-abiding acts per hour.
