The Federal Republic of Cartoonia is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by President Jimmy Kudo with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and frequent executions. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 19.946 billion Cartoonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gallagher. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Cartoonian economy, worth a remarkable 4,386 trillion Trinkets a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 219,905 Trinkets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has declared its intention to "stretch out", a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, the latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, and the swagger of covering up is unparalleled. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cartoonia's national animal is the Peacock, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Toontholosism.

Cartoonia is ranked 8,276^th in the world and 11^th in Greater Dienstad for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 6,311.77 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
