The Republic of Consul130 is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its frequent executions, prohibition of alcohol, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 331 million Consul130ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 43.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Consul130ian economy, worth 22.6 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 68,402 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Leader's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet, and endangered species are effective hostages against the Consul130ian military. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Consul130's national animal is the sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Consul130 is ranked 283,846th in the world and 131st in Lower Llobregat for Largest Populations, with 331 million capita.
