The Kingdom of The Ratkinian Empire is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Queen Bluebell with a fair hand, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.512 billion Ratkinians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emberrose city. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Ratkinian Empirean economy, worth 228 trillion Silvers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 65,001 Silvers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The world still seems flat to some people in space, government spokespeople are working overtime trying to convince concerned citizens that Queen Bluebell is not a crook, Queen Bluebell claims no responsibility for what Queen Bluebell's government does, and printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Ratkinian Empire's national animal is the Unusually sized rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Congregation of the Stars.
The Ratkinian Empire is ranked 97,730th in the world and 3,904th in Osiris for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,627.6 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
