The Republic of Caiov is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Arthur Alexandre with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 2.977 billion Caiorenses 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of caio. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Caiorense economy, worth 430 trillion caios a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 144,480 caios, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 564,149 per year while the poor average 25,238, a ratio of 22.4 to 1.

Labour strikes are routinely squashed by police, organ donation is compulsory, youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, and the construction of massive skyscrapers seems to be the result of Caiov's mid-life crisis. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Caiov's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Católica.

Caiov is ranked 93,586^th in the world and 2,726^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 85.37 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
