The Republic of Renecea is a large, genial nation, renowned for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 126 million Reneceans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 54.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Renecean economy, worth 3.68 trillion florins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,206 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prison visits increase substantially during election years, bureaucrats close new businesses for not complying with the Penguin Packaging Index, cash-strapped Reneceans scour their bodies for fortuitous zits, and government negotiators never forget to say "pretty please" when begging for custody of its criminals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Renecea's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Renecea is ranked 20,379^th in the world and 86^th in Forest for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 2 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
