The Holy Empire of Common6 is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Mario with an iron fist, and notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, frequent executions, and feral children. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 12.376 billion Common6ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Asunción. The average income tax rate is 85.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Common6ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,742 trillion francs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 140,777 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign leaders who don't applaud Mario's speeches are regarded as enemies of Common6, scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, the new one franc coin also makes a handy throwing-star, and tourism is a euphemism for committing crime in international waters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Common6's national animal is the beaver, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Common6 is ranked 29,764^th in the world and 2^nd in Common Storage for Longest Average Lifespans, with 90.12 years.
