The Free Land of Carter Land is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program, frequent executions, and smutty television. The hard-working, democratic population of 941 million Carter Landians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government is primarily concerned with Education, although Healthcare, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seliana. The average income tax rate is 34.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Carter Landian economy, worth 67.4 trillion Zennies a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 71,618 Zennies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Carter Landian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", the government is seen as openly hostile to all religion, and fake designer clothes are shredded and burnt while many in the world don't have a shirt on their back. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Carter Land's national animal is the Dodogama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Carter Land is ranked 118,700^th in the world and 100^th in New Western Empire for Most Extreme, scoring 17.39 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
