The Radical Transgenderists of Claibornia is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Caroley with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.254 billion Claibornians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ayzenstet. The average income tax rate is 87.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Claibornian economy, worth a remarkable 1,924 trillion pennies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 307,699 pennies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Mandatory updates on software drivers often bring life to a halt, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, the Ayzenstet XV Regiment (aka "The Goat Starers") have yet to win a battle, and professionals are ready to retire by the time they receive permission to use their credentials. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Claibornia's national animal is the Patriot-Chan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Supreme Revolutionary Thought.

Claibornia is ranked 308,762nd in the world and 241st in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Cultured, scoring 17 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
