The Free Land of Ramnarine is a huge, genial nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 511 million Ramnarineans 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of None. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ramnarinean economy, worth 35.4 trillion Ramcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 69,224 Ramcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Reddish-brown is the new black, there have been reports of people marrying housepets, signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés, and nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths. Crime is totally unknown. Ramnarine's national animal is the Spotted Dick, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ramnarine is ranked 52,516^th in the world and 18^th in Ridgefield for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.49 law-abiding acts per hour.
