The South African Stats of Rayasthan is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by PM Derek Van der Kaap with an iron fist, and notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 7.037 billion South Africans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pretoria. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient South African economy, worth a remarkable 2,470 trillion Rand a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 351,089 Rand, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

PM Derek Van der Kaap's media campaigns take a hiatus around exam week, the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", a sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate, and bargain-hunting is considered unpatriotic. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rayasthan's national animal is the Springbook, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Reformed Church.

Rayasthan is ranked 2,740^th in the world and 5^th in Union Mundial for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 26,021.06 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
