The Empire of Caosss is a tiny, efficient nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8 million Caosssians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.1%.

The very strong Caosssian economy, worth 489 billion null fragments a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 61,076 null fragments, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 186,575 per year while the poor average 15,496, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, organ donation is compulsory, and when shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Caosss's national animal is the dragon , which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Caosss is ranked 163,987^th in the world and 4,308^th in Ambition for Smartest Citizens, with 28.13 quips per hour.
