The Democratic People's Republic of RPD Culiacan is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Lia Vega with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.23 billion Culiacanans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carabanchel. The average income tax rate is 78.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Culiacanan economy, worth 650 trillion Divisas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 124,416 Divisas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Schoolchildren have more trading cards than flash cards in their backpacks, the Carabanchel State Museum is said to be haunted by ghastly musicians playing 'Nearer Violet to Thee', several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, and children are afraid to go out at night due to the ubiquity of hardened jaywalkers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. RPD Culiacan's national animal is the Oso, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

RPD Culiacan is ranked 309,185^th in the world and 24^th in Teremara for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 22.26 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
