The Confederacy of Greater Economica is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 467 million Greater Economicans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Volninna. The average income tax rate is 48.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Greater Economican economy, worth 49.0 trillion Kunmua Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,932 Kunmua Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

4-year-olds studying for their mathematics exams are anxious that they will be unemployable in adulthood if they fail, the men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers, military recruitment numbers are down as citizens object on 'moral grounds', and Greater Economican tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Economica's national animal is the Leatherback Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Greater Economica is ranked 23,760th in the world and 62nd in Carcassonne for Safest, scoring 111.89 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
