The Dictatorship of The Commonwealth Institute of Technology is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical population of 398 million students 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, well-organized government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Institute. The average income tax rate is 52.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong enrolled economy, worth 23.6 trillion caps a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 59,245 caps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

You don't need a smoking gun to arrest someone for promoting guns, child labor has been outlawed, infantry are nicknamed "mushrooms" because they get fed crap and are left in the dark, and the newest shade developed by The Commonwealth Institute of Technology's dye industry has been dubbed 'Agent Orange'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Commonwealth Institute of Technology's national animal is the gorilla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Commonwealth Institute of Technology is ranked 43,161^st in the world and 2,145^th in Balder for Safest, scoring 104.89 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
