Cannovar

Population120 million

The Republic of Cannovar is a large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its triple-decker prams, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 120 million Cannovarians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 65.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Cannovarian economy, worth 5.07 trillion Cannons a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,255 Cannons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Stone wrist watches that weigh 20lb are the latest trend, fishermen take out second mortgages to afford the yearly fishing permit, banks now use correct pronouns when evicting people from their houses, and paralegals spend all day Hewlett-Packing attorneys' law briefs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cannovar's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Cannovar is ranked 296,715th in the world and 64th in Sphere of Conservative Republics for Largest Populations, with 120 million capita.
