The Republic of Raul25 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, disturbing lack of elderly people, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.863 billion Raul25ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 71.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Raul25ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,231 trillion deniers a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 283,848 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.
Business is adjusting to new gender equality policies in the workplace, airport users are more worried about radiation than terrorism, the military struggles with recruitment, and citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Raul25's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Raul25 is ranked 28,114th in the world and 1,072nd in Lazarus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,779.15 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
