The Empire of Reactionaryzstan is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by your xenophobic great-uncle with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, avowedly heterosexual populace, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 18.501 billion gammons are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Singapore-on-Thames. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The frighteningly efficient reactionary economy, worth a remarkable 2,236 trillion British Pounds Shillings and Pence a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 120,865 British Pounds Shillings and Pence, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 890,515 per year while the poor average 4,970, a ratio of 179 to 1.

Homeless people can be found sleeping on streets in front of unoccupied second homes, city-dwellers are forcibly moved to farming communes in the countryside, the ingredients list for most food products covers the entire surface of the packaging, and Your xenophobic great-uncle is generally seen as a know-it-all (Reactionaryzstan has found 1 easter egg). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Reactionaryzstan's national animal is the patriotically bent banana, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is imperial nostalgia.

Reactionaryzstan is ranked 272,852nd in the world and 7th in Stanistan for Safest, scoring 6.92 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
