The Clampdown of Kaputer is a colossal, economically powerful nation, ruled by Big Brother with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 5.288 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals concentrates mainly on Defence, although Law & Order and Commerce are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Airstrip One. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Gambling.

Tourists outnumber citizens two to one, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Kaputer's national animal is the Pug, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Shouldn't have answered that issue, and its currency is the Springsteen.

Kaputer is ranked 29th in Capitalist Paradise and 1,171st in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 11 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
