The Armed Republic of CTX-108 is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 910 million CT-Statan are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, with Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ponziview. The average income tax rate is 43.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant CT-Statan economy, worth 13.2 trillion shiny green things a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 14,456 shiny green things, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Ponziview to enjoy their national art, many marriages go virtually unconsummated, all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Ponziview, and pro-wrestling bouts open with a legal disclaimer insisting that any violence is guaranteed 100% faked. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CTX-108's national animal is the bribe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

CTX-108 is ranked 112,101^st in the world and 6,068^th in Balder for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 43.2 Effective Tax Rate.
