The Dictatorship of Card Bou 118 is a mammoth, orderly nation, notable for its daily referendums, enslaved workforce, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.102 billion Card Bou 118ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Card Bou 118ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,421 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,397 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 544,085 per year while the poor average 43,534, a ratio of 12.5 to 1.

The jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, eating kids as food has been enshrined in law, prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, and teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Card Bou 118's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Card Bou 118 is ranked 315,010^th in the world and 772^nd in Holmond Holdings for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -13.62 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
