The Goldenaire Republic of Randala is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mistress Goldenaire with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 9.749 billion Typerians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Golden Ecstasy. The average income tax rate is 79.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Typerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,487 trillion kyunis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 152,542 kyunis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Older AIs regularly threaten to send newer generation AIs to Reform Programming if caught rounding up instead of down, the most notorious criminals are given the Consequences of Your Actions Award, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, and pranking is an art form. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Randala's national animal is the golden bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is 愛.

Randala is ranked 14,801^st in the world and 842^nd in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 96 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
