The Dominion of Reskellia is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its closed borders, museums and concert halls, and fear of technology. The compassionate, cheerful population of 20.188 billion Reskellians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Reskellian economy, worth a remarkable 5,775 trillion Talons a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is an amazing 286,103 Talons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's museums are real penny-pinchers, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, morality classes are compulsory for all school students, and scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Reskellia's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is the Tranquility of Yellow.

Reskellia is ranked 33,032nd in the world and 2nd in The Empire of Draconic States for Most Stationary, with 1,312.5928057734 days.
