The Federated State of Rainengrad is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Comrade Kegelkop with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cheerful population of 22.094 billion Rainengradians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Faraberline. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Rainengradian economy, worth a remarkable 9,838 trillion Lexells 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. 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 an amazing 445,308 Lexells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, the nation's most popular sport is sabotaging foreigners' hopes and dreams, the government now pays the "Really Awesome Super Heroes" (RASH) to catch evildoers, and citizens have reported seeing strange rays of light emanating from the moon. Crime is totally unknown. Rainengrad's national animal is the soltegu, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Zonneregenisme.

Rainengrad is ranked 319,791^st in the world and 4,546^th in The North Pacific for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 13.42 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
