The Democratic Republic of Computa is a tiny, socially progressive nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates. The democratic, devout population of 14 million Computans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 51.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The fair Computan economy, worth 445 billion dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,789 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Computa's national animal is the fox.

Computa is ranked 156,167^th in the world and 5^th in The Loosely Aligned Nations of Cullowhee for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
