The Holy Empire of RakBibiStan is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Sara with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.556 billion RakBibiStanis 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Spirituality and Industry also on the agenda, while Education and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caesarea. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient RakBibiStanian economy, worth a remarkable 4,239 trillion Mufletas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 443,607 Mufletas, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,150,463 per year while the poor average 4,048, a ratio of 1,025 to 1.

The nation faces constant invasions by foreign boy bands, homeless people can be found sleeping on streets in front of unoccupied second homes, government policies change at the drop of a rabbit, and commemorative mugs remembering last year's Black Friday Crockery Riots are a best seller this year. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. RakBibiStan's national animal is the Smolani, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Stabbing.

RakBibiStan is ranked 27,955^th in the world and 19^th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Most Extreme, scoring 41.61 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
