The Empire of REBD 157 is a large, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 149 million Red-Eyeds are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Defense are also considered important, while Environment and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The thriving REBD 157ian economy, worth 9.91 trillion black coins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is 66,527 black coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 235,487 per year while the poor average 13,570, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. REBD 157's national animal is the dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

REBD 157 is ranked 184,343^rd in the world and 397^th in Saint Osmund for Rudest Citizens, with 43.87 insults per minute.
