The People's Republic of Capablanca is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Most Random of Numbers with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.876 billion Capablancans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Golden City of Congress. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Capablancan economy, worth a remarkable 1,072 trillion Freedollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 182,554 Freedollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, the nation's diplomats shake hands with those whose hands are drenched in the blood of innocents, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why The Most Random of Numbers is a silly poophead, and government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Capablanca's national animal is the Bureaucat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is No Official Religion.

Capablanca is ranked 1,559th in the world and 63rd in Osiris for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 4,509.87 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
