The Rogue Nation of Caranhzbaula is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, disturbing lack of elderly people, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.73 billion Caranhzbaulans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Caranhzbaulan economy, worth a remarkable 1,851 trillion Fruizlhiaus 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an amazing 275,075 Fruizlhiaus, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

The Communist Party claims that selling things for profit isn't necessarily capitalism, translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, the nation's best artists are considered pretty easy to beat, and the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Caranhzbaula's national animal is the Fruit Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Caranhzbaula is ranked 287,326th in the world and 64th in Worlds of Colors for Safest, scoring 4.77 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
