The Republic of Consul200 is a very large, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 280 million Consul200ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.7%.

The strong Consul200ian economy, worth 16.3 trillion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,129 guilders, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 182,574 per year while the poor average 14,170, a ratio of 12.9 to 1.

Aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, the government is hounded to provide tissues whenever the feelings of the Dàguó people are hurt, and six-year-old children playing dress-up are viewed with suspicion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Consul200's national animal is the cobra.

Consul200 is ranked 74,990th in the world and 47th in Lower Llobregat for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,341.09 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
