The Hope and Glory of Ravania Ultra is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Rufus Ragerock with a fair hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 27.744 billion Ravanians 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ultratonia. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The very strong Ravanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,358 trillion Claws a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 85,018 Claws, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned, the government takes agricultural advice from a wasp-themed superhero, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, and the government is spending millions on lawyers' fees trying to get Rufus Ragerock off a murder charge. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ravania Ultra's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Order of the Black Raven.

Ravania Ultra is ranked 2,491^st in the world and 1^st in Vlaanderen for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 3,764.28 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
