The Dictatorship of Captivis is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Donald Tusk with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.248 billion Captivisians 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbem Mortis. The average income tax rate is 87.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Captivisian economy, worth 399 trillion Captivian Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is 76,192 Captivian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", the government's energy policy of refugee 'refuelment' is a well-oiled machine, the 'Museum Of Stuff We Stole' is a tourist favourite, and priests are being drafted by the church load. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Captivis's national animal is the Griffin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tuskianity.

Captivis is ranked 231,143^rd in the world and 1,377^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Black Market, with 282 billion Standard Monetary Units.
