The Republic of Concarneau is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 288 million Concarnoises are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government prioritizes Spirituality, with Law & Order, Defense, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy isn't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.7%.

The thriving Concarnois economy, worth 19.9 trillion euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 69,075 euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 211,010 per year while the poor average 17,526, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling, and all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons'. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Concarneau's national animal is the stoat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Concarneau is ranked 109,517^th in the world and 4^th in Breizh for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,502.58 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
