The RumRunners of Captain Morgan II is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, complete lack of prisons, and complete lack of public education. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 45.577 billion Captains are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Education receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Captain Morgan economy, worth a remarkable 8,016 trillion Barrel of Spiced Rums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 175,899 Barrel of Spiced Rums, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 546,698 per year while the poor average 43,537, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

Angst-filled teenagers are rushing off to buy government bonds for some odd reason, voting has become a nightmare since everyone keeps selecting "None of the above", membership in the state-owned Church of Captain Morgan II is mandatory and all other faith organisations are banned, and the police have been reduced to using duct tape instead of handcuffs following further cutbacks. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Captain Morgan II's national animal is the Bilge Rat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Captain Morgan II is ranked 2,404th in the world and 6th in Texas for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 171,502.11 Standard Monetary Units.
