The Most Serene Republic of Carignanum is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, rampant corporate plagiarism, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.635 billion Genoveses have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Genova. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Genovese economy, worth a remarkable 1,644 trillion Genovins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,299 Genovins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Money grows on trees, future leaders of Carignanum regularly dismiss pressing political issues when available options don't conform to their worldview, even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Carignanum's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Carignanum is ranked 877^th in the world and 17^th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.98 law-abiding acts per hour.
