The Duke of Reagan City of Rateria is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Amadeus Vulkan with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 20.386 billion Raterians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The tiny, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ecadon. The average income tax rate is 4.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Raterian economy, worth a remarkable 2,964 trillion Raterian Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 145,407 Raterian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Raterian diplomacy is by the book, chickens frolic freely on swings and roundabouts in Ecadon's playgrounds, many aides in President Amadeus Vulkan's office are known to be serial jaywalkers, and the national defense strategy is a little floppy. Crime is totally unknown. Rateria's national animal is the Wyvern, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.
Rateria is ranked 129,660th in the world and 25th in Libertatem for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 838.76 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
