The Community of Animal Behavior College is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, cynical population of 212 million animal behavior specialists are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The medium-sized, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.1%.

The strong animal behavior specializing economy, worth 10.1 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 47,487 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 283,150 per year while the poor average 3,638, a ratio of 77.8 to 1.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, and mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field. Crime is a problem. Animal Behavior College's national animal is the dog, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
