The Republic of Carousels is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning panther population. The democratic population of 3.265 billion Carouselsians enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.

The relatively small, moralistic, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 18.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Carouselsian economy, worth 101 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,188 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Carousels's national animal is the panther.

Carousels is ranked 239,200^th in the world and 2^nd in Union of Left Radical Forces for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 214.11 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
