The Merchant Emirate of New Caitarea is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, complete lack of prisons, and national health service. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 14.794 billion New Caitari are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qæterinsburg. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Caitarean economy, worth a remarkable 8,043 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is a breathtaking 543,697 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

New urban roads are threatening city parks, school nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites, Leader's reputation is hard as nails, and only the richest get to see out of their windows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Caitarea's national animal is the canary, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.

New Caitarea is ranked 2,132^nd in the world and 88^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 142.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
