The Republic of Reultan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Anndra MacAonghais with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 11.811 billion Reultanians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Achadubh. The average income tax rate is 55.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Reultanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,286 trillion reulòrs a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 193,598 reulòrs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

What's in your genes matters more than what's in your jeans, slow dancing is made trickier when Auntie Edna insists on standing between the couple's arms, dissident voters are sent on a 'relaxing break' at the Ministry of Love, and airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Reultan's national animal is the grey wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Paganach.

Reultan is ranked 285,936^th in the world and 3^rd in Allied Independent and Sovereign States for Safest, scoring 2.53 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
