The Principality of Cape Insulinde is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its smutty television, digital currency, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 547 million Cape Insulindeans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Revachol. The average income tax rate is 9.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cape Insulindean economy, worth 75.8 trillion reáls a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 138,502 reáls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, religious bigotry and a fear of outsiders have replaced religious studies in schools, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Revachol to enjoy their national art, and rich people sell their mansions to pay for endless rows of mobile homes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cape Insulinde's national animal is the great skua, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Cape Insulinde is ranked 226,050^th in the world and 510^th in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 547 million capita.
