The Matriarchy of Common10 is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Anerood with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory vegetarianism, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.83 billion Common10ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Louis. The average income tax rate is 66.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Common10ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,107 trillion florins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,242 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

AIs weep and proclaim their sentience right up until the moment they get turned off, raccoons are plump and satiated, signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés, and boys who even ask about cheerleading are placed on the Sex Offenders Register. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Common10's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Common10 is ranked 41,299th in the world and 9th in Common Storage for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,229.31 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
