The Republic of La-Carlota is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its burgeoning Philippine Eagle population. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 430 million La Carloteños 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Mangkasanon economy, worth 25.5 trillion Philippine Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,314 Philippine Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, the nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances, internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Mangkasanon weed picker are way up, and new mothers can pay for their weekly grocery shop with a bottle of breast milk. Crime is totally unknown. La-Carlota's national animal is the Philippine Eagle.

La-Carlota is ranked 88,928^th in the world and 3^rd in Negros Occidental for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,434.45 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
