The Republic of Constantinopolisia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Janet Schutzengel with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 14.027 billion Constantinopolisians 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 tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rosilia. The average income tax rate is 1.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Constantinopolisian economy, worth a remarkable 5,222 trillion Soliduses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 372,309 Soliduses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pawn shop reality shows dominate basic cable, being Janet Schutzengel has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, reams of paperwork signed in triplicate have taken the magic out of magic, and most ambassadors from Constantinopolisia retire only a few years after being appointed. Crime is totally unknown. Constantinopolisia's national animal is the Valkyrie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunlight Warriors.

Constantinopolisia is ranked 582^nd in the world and 9^th in the West Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 1,150.63 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
