Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Holy Empire of Reltia is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-working, cynical population of 350 million Reltians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bellend. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.0%.

The all-consuming Reltian economy, worth 32.9 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 93,955 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 363,331 per year while the poor average 16,672, a ratio of 21.8 to 1.

Ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties, phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, the government has declared that sharing is uncaring, and Reltians caught jaywalking often have their houses seized by the police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Reltia's national animal is the Cassowary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Reltia is ranked 80,919^th in the world and 948^th in the Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,164.28 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
