The Randomness of Rand-num is a titanic, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory vegetarianism, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 16.743 billion Randumians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of d20. The average income tax rate is 35.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Ranumian economy, worth a remarkable 1,079 trillion Dacs a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,480 Dacs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks, new vat-grown soldiers are as replaceable as bullets, skateboarding is considered a form of diplomacy, and more than one company makes the board game Monopoly. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Rand-num's national animal is the die, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Rand-num is ranked 30,854^th in the world and 3^rd in Devia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 6,091.35 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
