The Republic of Carrot Tops is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 44.456 billion Carrot Topsians 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.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 67.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Carrot Topsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,818 trillion carrots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 40,895 carrots, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Elections have been outlawed, cars are banned, and the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Carrot Tops's national animal is the top, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Carrot Tops is ranked 126,759^th in the world and 5,651^st in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 6.35 kickbacks per hour.
