The Free Land of Ramnarine is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 563 million Ramnarineans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of None. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ramnarinean economy, worth 41.7 trillion Ramcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 73,997 Ramcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Spotted Dick is one of the most popular forenames in Ramnarine, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, dubiously qualified East Lebatuckese doctors prescribe ice baths as a treatment for pneumonia, and the nation's beloved 'good-natured doormat' is inundated by begging letters. Crime is totally unknown. Ramnarine's national animal is the Spotted Dick, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ramnarine is ranked 51,871^st in the world and 13^th in Ridgefield for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,744.67 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
