The United Republic of Richomp is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Arlan Jhovetal with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 16.013 billion Richompians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Whalani. The average income tax rate is 97.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Richompian economy, worth a remarkable 3,035 trillion Dauiland dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 189,588 Dauiland dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Urban entrepreneurs are busy introducing cockroaches into restaurant kitchens, lifelong celibates are surprised to receive government-issue condoms in the post, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, and the Richompian Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely. Crime is totally unknown. Richomp's national animal is the Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Richomp is ranked 5,581st in the world and 2nd in Dauiland for Safest, scoring 129.51 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
