The E-Democracy of The Rhein States is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Herman von Pückler-Muskau with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 20.824 billion Rhein Statesians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Heidelberg. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhein Statesian economy, worth an astonishing 12,082 trillion Rheiner Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is a breathtaking 580,225 Rheiner Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tools of the trade for landmine clearance appear to be copious amounts of gasoline and a box of matches, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, the media seems excessively interested in what Herman von Pückler-Muskau is wearing this season, and camo-patterned plush comfort blankets are standard issue for commandos. Crime is totally unknown. The Rhein States's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Absurdism.

The Rhein States is ranked 289,170th in the world and 6,257th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.35 kickbacks per hour.
