The Eternal Kingdom of Riandera is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Raja Bayu IV with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.557 billion Rianderans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, pro-business government prioritizes Education, although Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Langkamata. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The very strong Rianderan economy, worth 254 trillion rupas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Tourism. Average income is 71,664 rupas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 218,919 per year while the poor average 18,183, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Riandera's national animal is the Rianderan lizard and its national religion is No official religion.

Riandera is ranked 111,705^th in the world and 2,015^th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 65 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
