The Republic of -cule is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its burgeoning dove population. The democratic population of 376 million -culeans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The relatively small, liberal government prioritizes Welfare, although Education, Healthcare, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality and Environment receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 15.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped -culean economy, worth 11.9 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,582 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is almost non-existent. -cule's national animal is the dove, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

-cule is ranked 281,321^st in the world and 2^nd in Minuscule for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -3.16 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
