The Sacred Imperial Holdings of Relarus is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by His Holy Ecclesiarch Lucan Elus with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, punitive income tax rates, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.473 billion Relarusians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Deliverance. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Relarusian economy, worth 291 trillion Soliduses a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 198,003 Soliduses, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,685,301 per year while the poor average 4,137, a ratio of 407 to 1.

Birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, women should never trust a man who turns up to a first date with an open bottle in his hand, atheists on vacation find The Imperial Creed's scriptures make useful doorstops, and the government is a law unto itself. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Relarus's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Imperial Creed.

Relarus is ranked 288,291^st in the world and 1,444^th in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.69 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
