Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Confederacy of Carpetania-Olcadia is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 655 million Carpetolcadians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magerit. The average income tax rate is 25.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Carpetania-Olcadian economy, worth 44.6 trillion Maravedís a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is 68,030 Maravedís, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, and Carpetania-Olcadia has designated Magerit as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Carpetania-Olcadia's national animal is the Wild Pig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Carpetania-Olcadia is ranked 197,055^th in the world and 4,058^th in the South Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 22.8 billion Standard Monetary Units.
