The Great Empire of Retfor is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Lodrik von Retfor with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, flagrant waste-dumping, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.987 billion Retforians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stanis. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Retforian economy, worth 335 trillion Retforian rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,286 Retforian rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military training in Retfor emphasizes the tactical advantages of stabbing backs, faceless corporations are expected to assume parental responsibility over millions of teenagers, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Retfor after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, and voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Retfor's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Galactic Chaos.

Retfor is ranked 273,501st in the world and 285th in The Brotherhood of Malice for Most Stationary, with 9.51566752108 days.
