The Community of Scarabs is a colossal, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning elephant population. The hard-working population of 3.069 billion Scarabsians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 15.1%.

The Scarabsian economy, worth 146 trillion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Trout Farming, and Retail. Average income is 47,830 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scarabs's national animal is the elephant, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Scarabs is ranked 172,611^th in the world and 1^st in Cretanja Queendom for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,139.46 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
