The Well-Independent Federation of RIDGELAND is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jéna Issanté with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, unlimited-speed roads, and digital currency. The compassionate population of 2.31 billion RIDGELANDIC have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of DALGARONA. The average income tax rate is 92.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient RIDGELANDIC economy, worth 360 trillion RÈGALs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 155,871 RÈGALs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls, the sanitised and dull music festivals of RIDGELAND are famed for their reasonable volume levels, exports are stamped with "made by the invisible hand you commies", and the name of the "Butcher of Bigtopia" adorns shirts across RIDGELAND. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. RIDGELAND's national animal is the White Argo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is DIEDERICHISM.

RIDGELAND is ranked 284,447^th in the world and 273^rd in Forest for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -14.07 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
