The Queendom of Rhynesborough is a very large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 196 million Rhynesboroughians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 29.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Rhynesboroughian economy, worth 4.93 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Pizza Delivery, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 25,139 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, torture is illegal, students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, and drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Rhynesborough's national animal is the Lily Hopper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rhynesborough is ranked 92,923rd in the world and 2,129th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 273.26 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
