The Commonwealth of Cutethings is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Avocado with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, enforced nudity, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 6.437 billion Cutethingsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cuddlesberg. The average income tax rate is 90.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Cute economy, worth 292 trillion Cottonballs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling. Average income is 45,498 Cottonballs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders, rumor has it that Avocado has won three lotteries in a row, young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, and undergrads find their professors' mushroom experiments less psychedelic than expected. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cutethings's national animal is the Lemon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cutethings is ranked 279,125^th in the world and 10,576^th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -10.86 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
