The Inland Empire of Riverside County is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The Board Of Supervisors with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 12.51 billion Riverside Countyians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Riverside. The average income tax rate is 90.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Riverside Countyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,740 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 139,134 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government helps teach children how to kill a man from six paces, anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, and vaccinations are mandatory. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riverside County's national animal is the bighorn sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Paganism.

Riverside County is ranked 20,148^th in the world and 1^st in Riverside County for Lowest Crime Rates, with 89.59 law-abiding acts per hour.
