The Forgotten Album of Ralf und Florian is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.249 billion Ralf und Florianians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tongebirge. The average income tax rate is 22.6%.

The thriving Ralf und Florianian economy, worth 629 trillion Kristalls a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,254 Kristalls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign nationals are widely distrusted, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, one of the nation's leading exports is empty platitudes, and customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ralf und Florian's national animal is the Ananas Symphonie, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ralf und Florian is ranked 168,800th in the world and 120th in Bytes for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 158.32 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
