The Empire of Carolian Empire is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and digital currency. The compassionate, devout population of 270 million Carolians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Coralliunm. The average income tax rate is 53.0%.

The very strong Carolian economy, worth 19.9 trillion Amethyst pounds a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 73,765 Amethyst pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Corporations claim the third ounce of any metal traded in a wicker-cone on the Sunday of a full moon as a charitable expense, a popular artist is claiming that a raw steak with a dog turd on it is a portrait of Leader, edutainment video games are taking Carolian Empire's students to the next level, and the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Carolian Empire's national animal is the Froge, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Carolian Empire is ranked 76,109^th in the world and 122^nd in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,392.36 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
