The Republic of Charles 7 is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 580 million Charles 7ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 55.6%.

The powerhouse Charles 7ian economy, worth 50.1 trillion Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,371 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, an exhibition on Animal memes is currently starring at the National Art Gallery, and homeless people are periodically found dead upon altars to assorted deities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Charles 7's national animal is the Animal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Charles 7 is ranked 76,095^th in the world and 1^st in Smely PooP for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 45.83 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
