The Mysterious Airship of King Carl is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, avant-garde cinema, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 41.852 billion King Carlians 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while Environment and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of King Carl City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient King Carlian economy, worth an astonishing 24,768 trillion lats 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Information Technology. 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 a breathtaking 591,810 lats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The military will start wars with other nations on a lark, sections of the police receive paramilitary training, the King Carlian delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. King Carl's national animal is the great leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is a major religion.

King Carl is ranked 12,624^th in the world and 1^st in Hattrick for Most Secular, with 92.84 Atheism Rate.
