The Federation of Capitalisia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Sheikh Mohammed ibn Abdullah with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.109 billion Capitalisians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Industry, although Defense, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capitalibad. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Capitalisian economy, worth 517 trillion Capitalisian rupees a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 166,302 Capitalisian rupees, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,016,969 per year while the poor average 11,969, a ratio of 85.0 to 1.

Snowball fights inaugurate summer breaks, the nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street, beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings, and pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Capitalisian roads. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Capitalisia's national animal is the elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Islam.

Capitalisia is ranked 21,146th in the world and 2nd in THE SUPER POWERS for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 6,928.7 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
