The Protectorate of Common5 is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Hans-Adam with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 12.155 billion Common5ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vaduz. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Common5ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,714 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Retail, Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 141,053 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All the cool kids have tetanus, Hans-Adam is rumored to have teleportation powers, a light breeze is enough to make Hans-Adam fold, and electricity company executives pray nightly to Zeus and Thor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Common5's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman-Catholic.

Common5 is ranked 38,802^nd in the world and 8^th in Common Storage for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,314.61 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
