The Empire of Carolean Dynasty is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Otto IV with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 9.009 billion Caroleans 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 tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stockholm. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Carolean economy, worth a remarkable 1,656 trillion Crowns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 183,869 Crowns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 534,047 per year while the poor average 50,109, a ratio of 10.7 to 1.
Factory workers offered 20-hour shifts are expected to thank their bosses for the wonderful opportunity, administrative districts are increasingly defined by their taste in housing architecture, public parks are littered with cigarette butts, and frustrated teenage boys are told that if they like it then they should have put a ring on it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Carolean Dynasty's national animal is the Condor, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
Carolean Dynasty is ranked 8,990th in the world and 79th in Forest for Smartest Citizens, with 96.88 quips per hour.
