The French Delight of Pauline Bonaparte is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Her Worshipfulness Queen Pauline I with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.743 billion Bonapartes are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 82.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Bonapartan economy, worth 606 trillion francs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is dominated by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 56,410 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government negotiators never forget to say "pretty please" when begging for custody of its criminals, teachers regularly paddle unruly students, the nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street, and all writing must pass a censorship board before being allowed on the shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pauline Bonaparte's national animal is the lady-in-waiting, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pauline Bonaparte is ranked 119,699th in the world and 420th in Carcassonne for Safest, scoring 73.54 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
