The Kingdom of Rayla is a mammoth, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning squirrel population. The hard-working population of 6.147 billion Raylans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.5%.

The Raylan economy, worth 252 trillion rubles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 41,001 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rayla's national animal is the squirrel.

Rayla is ranked 178,692^nd in the world and 1^st in Avernia for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
