The People's Republic of Cutote is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Big Money with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 32.989 billion Cutoters are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Environment and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dutote. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Cutoter economy, worth an astonishing 31,954 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is a breathtaking 968,630 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 9,074,094 per year while the poor average 8,696, a ratio of 1,043 to 1.

You can't make an omelet without breaking a few legs, major corporations receive tax breaks for no apparent reason, the legal system for the political class is completely separate from the one for normal citizens, and there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Cutote's national animal is the Rabbit-Tev, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Worship of Money.

Cutote is ranked 340,545th in the world and 7th in Pontbridge Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring -121.86 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
