“None shall stop our conquest!”

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

The People's Republic of Cutote is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Big Money with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ritual sacrifices, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 24.346 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 minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of 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 20,453 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 Gambling. Average income is a breathtaking 840,128 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 7,870,109 per year while the poor average 7,544, a ratio of 1,043 to 1.

Airplanes have giant grilles on their noses to knock drones out of their path, where your food came from is an unknowable mystery, international trade is a sticky issue, and sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon. 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 233,191^st in the world and 6^th in Pontbridge Islands for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -167.84 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
