The Borderlands of Charanuth is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, complete lack of prisons, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 14.511 billion Charanuthians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Welfare, with Education, Spirituality, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Defense are ignored. The average income tax rate is 16.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Charanuthian economy, worth 493 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Pizza Delivery, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,022 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs, only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations, and skateboarding is punishable by heavy fines. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Charanuth's national animal is the camel, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Charanuth is ranked 225,370^th in the world and 102^nd in Red Back Island for Lowest Crime Rates, with 56.51 law-abiding acts per hour.
