The Republic of Raul14 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its daily referendums, compulsory military service, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.905 billion Raul14ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 50.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Raul14ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,943 trillion kronor 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. 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 amazing 245,875 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, citizens who leave the nation for work are instantly charged with treason, and international war crimes are good for business and business is booming. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raul14's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Raul14 is ranked 23,629th in the world and 1,615th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 86.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
