The Provisional Authority of Rakscovia is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Marshal of Defense Vasily Kardashev with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, anti-smoking policies, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.066 billion Rakscovians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belreijna. The average income tax rate is 89.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rakscovian economy, worth a remarkable 2,154 trillion Valkoes a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 178,596 Valkoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The fire protection service is wholly government-funded, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, and it is cheaper to die in the wilderness than to survive. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rakscovia's national animal is the Donovan Sparrowhawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is State Secularism.

Rakscovia is ranked 10,206th in the world and 107th in Europeia for Most Cultured, scoring 113 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
