The Realmreich of Stonestein is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Rey Gordo with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, ubiquitous missile silos, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 14.395 billion Stonesteiners 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Citystadt. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Stonesteiner economy, worth an astonishing 11,530 trillion boulders 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. 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 a breathtaking 801,014 boulders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All beauty contests have been banned, professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials, whales in captivity live in little more than glorified goldfish bowls, and children seem to be getting better at lying these days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stonestein's national animal is the stonefish, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Stonestein is ranked 290,259^th in the world and 9^th in TopCornion for Highest Food Quality, scoring 2.72 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
