The Island Republic of Riletta is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Saint Lana with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, devout population of 3.736 billion Rilettans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Batman. The average income tax rate is 91.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rilettan economy, worth 544 trillion Rilettan Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,798 Rilettan Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

An online tea-bagging epidemic is getting worse and (meta)worse, the internal market is thriving, a good deed is rewarded with a thank you note attached to a deportation order, and the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riletta's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Riletta is ranked 7,905th in the world and 183rd in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 105.99 law-abiding acts per hour.
