The United Empire of Caraani is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Caranaar XVII with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, enslaved workforce, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 21.535 billion Caraani love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Epistylium. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Caraani economy, worth a remarkable 3,768 trillion Ryūs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,006 Ryūs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, the nation's arms dealers guarantee discretion and untraceable transactions, bank robbers always set aside 50% of the loot to pay off the judge, and stockbrokers dream of getting rich by writing textbooks. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Caraani's national animal is the Carpathian Dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Caraani is ranked 6,382nd in the world and 314th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 147 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
