About The Republic of Rezlas
Location: The East Pacific
The Republic of Rezlas is a small, economically powerful nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8 million are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations.
The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Welfare and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Basket Weaving industries.
