The Federal Republic of Reiva is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 189 million Reivans 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 relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.9%.

The very strong Reivan economy, worth 12.9 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 68,244 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

Viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, Reivan actors literally work from cradle to grave, and new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Reiva's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Reiva is ranked 187,787^th in the world and 183^rd in Midnight Vale for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
