The Paused Incinerator of Card Cleaver is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 749 million Card Cleavers love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bardcoard. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Cleavage economy, worth 66.8 trillion card scaps a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,149 card scaps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Truck drivers turn their engines off and coast whenever they're going downhill, a proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII', kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, and virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card Cleaver's national animal is the paper tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Card Cleaver is ranked 48,154^th in the world and 8^th in Trading Cards for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,489.36 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
