The State of Carmi is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 39.012 billion Carmians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barrack Hill. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The very strong Carmian economy, worth a remarkable 2,001 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 51,315 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 330,735 per year while the poor average 3,216, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Carmi has designated Barrack Hill as its capital city, The Governor has just been declared ruler of Carmi in an international press conference, at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to the Governor's wardrobe, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Carmi's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Carmi is ranked 69,081st in the world and 13th in 0000 for Most Cultured, scoring 68 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
