The People's Democratic Republic of Rayakavkaz is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Premier Mikhail Barkovskyy with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.95 billion Avarat are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kripkiyyat. The average income tax rate is 75.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Avarat economy, worth 825 trillion Krots a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 166,756 Krots, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, students consistently complain that the wi-fi ate their homework, centuries-old legal documents detailing agnatic-cognatic gavelkind succession are being dusted off again, and students abandon classrooms for online education. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rayakavkaz's national animal is the Brown Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Eastern Orthodox Christianity.

Rayakavkaz is ranked 37,663^rd in the world and 102^nd in Europe for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,229.26 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
