The Republic of Cauzballhe is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.711 billion Cauzballheans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 38.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cauzballhean economy, worth a remarkable 1,857 trillion Evil Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 276,739 Evil Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', binoculars sales are at an all-time high, passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, and agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cauzballhe's national animal is the Dodo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cauzballhe is ranked 39,826th in the world and 20th in Worlds of Colors for Most Stationary, with 1,136.13700203852 days.
