The Democratic Republic of Racatonia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Dalinar Kholin with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 4.164 billion Racatonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Racatone. The average income tax rate is 70.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Racatonian economy, worth 496 trillion Racs a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,261 Racs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow, conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, government programs are less "written" and more "plagiarised", and there's no representation without taxation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Racatonia's national animal is the Jabberwock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Science.

Racatonia is ranked 11,480^th in the world and 36^th in Wintreath for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,675.93 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
