The Empire of The Riverdales is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Ash Riverdale with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, complete lack of prisons, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.683 billion Riverdalesians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Riverdale City. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Riverdalesian economy, worth 298 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 80,952 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Asking what someone does for a living is considered a faux pax for being potentially jobist, the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, the police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes, and pedants defending Ash Riverdale observe that psychopaths and sociopaths aren't exactly the same thing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Riverdales's national animal is the wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
The Riverdales is ranked 206,706th in the world and 5,409th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 40.1830992828 days.
