Summary
The Principality of Rishi Van is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate population of 166 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
Government
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 94%, and even higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Book Publishing.
Domestic Affairs
Polygamy is legal, drug distribution is tightly controlled by the government, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rishi Van's national animal is the Rishian llama and its currency is the RVR - Rishi Van Rupee.
