The Kingdom of Carbonek is a large, cultured nation, renowned for its triple-decker prams, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 125 million Carbonekians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Carbonekian economy, worth 6.83 trillion Denarii a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,661 Denarii, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elections are outlawed and a hairstylist has recently received a government appointment, the national colors help to make everyone look slimmer, tourists outnumber citizens two to one, and the teaching of evolution has been banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Carbonek's national animal is the Kingfisher, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Carbonek is ranked 104,021^st in the world and 46^th in Catholic for Largest Governments, scoring 16.22 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
