The DeLeontologist of Ratateague is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its national health service, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 20.796 billion Ratatekkers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holtmímir. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Ratatasque economy, worth a remarkable 7,925 trillion labor credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an amazing 381,123 labor credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader's handshakes with opposition leaders usually lead to thumb wars, incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, and the art of conversation has been rediscovered. Crime is totally unknown. Ratateague's national animal is the flying squirrel, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ratateague is ranked 593^rd in the world and 2^nd in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Lowest Crime Rates, with 174.69 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
