The Kingdom of Rykwetter is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King Willem V with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.849 billion Rykwetters are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ryndam. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Rykwetterian economy, worth 829 trillion swierjilds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 171,100 swierjilds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
King Willem V can finally stop kneading the dough and start rolling in it instead, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rykwetter's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Rykwetter is ranked 179,730th in the world and 3,216th in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 77.88365154332 days.
