The Colony of Colonial Perdition is a very large, safe nation, notable for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 488 million Colonial Perditionians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 43.9%.

The strong Colonial Perditionian economy, worth 25.0 trillion Half Crowns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,226 Half Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The traditional Violetist dish of stuffed sheep's head is served with an intense look of shock upon its face, kilts and cassocks are viewed with suspicion, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Leader is a silly poophead, and APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Colonial Perdition's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Colonial Perdition is ranked 200,236^th in the world and 40^th in Colonies for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 864.5 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
