The Republic of Rawa Principality is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.581 billion Rawians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rawa Mazowiecka. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.2%.

The very strong Rawian economy, worth 257 trillion Rawian Złoties a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is 71,958 Rawian Złoties, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 224,431 per year while the poor average 17,721, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.

The Rawian delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", children need to wear helmets and safety harnesses before mounting a carousel horse, out-of-work basketball players loom over the unemployment line, and tax assessment offices double as polling stations. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Rawa Principality's national animal is the Bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Rawa Principality is ranked 295,819th in the world and 257th in The League for Most Developed, scoring 46.28 on the Human Development Index.
