The French Delight of Pauline Bonaparte is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Her Worshipfulness Queen Pauline I with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.679 billion Bonapartes are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Bonapartan economy, worth 616 trillion francs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 57,713 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government negotiators never forget to say "pretty please" when begging for custody of its criminals, teachers regularly paddle unruly students, the nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street, and all writing must pass a censorship board before being allowed on the shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pauline Bonaparte's national animal is the lady-in-waiting, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pauline Bonaparte is ranked 27,624th in the world and 29th in Carcassonne for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,705.69 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
