The Directorial Republic of Rivalfiume is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Grand Directory with an even hand, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 3.563 billion fluviani are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grankastello. The average income tax rate is 69.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse fluviano economy, worth 257 trillion Fjoro Fluvianoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 72,393 Fjoro Fluvianoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Trust-fund babies line up for places in community college, you're never too young to learn how to lie with confidence, blackface performers claim they are being deliberately ironic, and mechanics are often exhausted by their work. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rivalfiume's national animal is the Fluvian Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Rivalfiume is ranked 50,654^th in the world and 595^th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
