The Violation of Causes is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Mister Cause with an iron fist, and remarkable for its burgeoning eagle population. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 24.371 billion Causesians 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 medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Causetown. The average income tax rate is 27.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Causesian economy, worth 611 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Retail, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,104 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Violetism has been named as Causes's national religion, Causes has designated Causetown as its capital city, and Mister Cause has just been declared ruler of Causes in an international press conference. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Causes's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violetism.

Causes is ranked 236,693^rd in the world and 3^rd in Huago for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
