The Liberal Kingdom of Ratesbabwe is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Alister Henry Rawling 301st with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 6.703 billion Ratesbabweans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Setar City. The average income tax rate is 86.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ratesbabwean economy, worth a remarkable 1,286 trillion Rats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 191,897 Rats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Rumour has it King Alister Henry Rawling 301st needs a calculator to multiply ten by ten, structures are raised on promises, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, and the latest Orange tablet's new peeling surface keeps the device always fresh. Crime is totally unknown. Ratesbabwe's national animal is the fire breathing sea dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is None.

Ratesbabwe is ranked 6,306^th in the world and 49^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 5,761.91 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
