The Commonwealth of Carvet is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Meinir Arthan with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enforced nudity, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.312 billion Carvetians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caerliwelydd. The average income tax rate is 50.3%.

The strong Carvetian economy, worth 70.7 trillion livers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,885 livers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Chekhov's guns are killing the entertainment budget, newspapers cannot report anything about politicians without their explicit consent, the government is proudly free of crabs, and invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Carvet's national animal is the stag, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Carvet is ranked 90,397^th in the world and 5^th in Orion Spur for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,057.17 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
