The Federal Republic of Cariocapolis is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 120 million Cariocas have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 20.3%.

The strong Carioca economy, worth 8.06 trillion dólars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 67,154 dólars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Homes have been banned from having any more than one wheel, signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés, a Portugal Tourist Association survey has rated Cariocapolis #1 for number twos, and the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cariocapolis's national animal is the Onça, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cariocapolis is ranked 52,452^nd in the world and 39^th in Portugal for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 53,522.46 Standard Monetary Units.
