The Empire of Rhetiaa is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Her Imperial Majesty Empress Odet with an iron fist, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 13.272 billion Rhetiaans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Panem. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Rhetiaan economy, worth a remarkable 2,170 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 163,509 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you', the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla, and elderly citizens regularly buy posh multimillion-Dollar mansions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhetiaa's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Church of Rhetiaa.
Rhetiaa is ranked 5,896th in the world and 135th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 112.47 law-abiding acts per hour.
