The Arling of Caanon is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Arl Harabek vos Bianos with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 12.97 billion Caanonites 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Izan. The average income tax rate is 11.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Caanonite economy, worth 728 trillion kamas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,180 kamas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Prominent cultural symbols are featured on the backs of cereal boxes, motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, washing-up liquid looks and smells like baby poo, and citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Caanon's national animal is the phoenix and its national religion is Maumiqism.

Caanon is ranked 141,433^rd in the world and 11^th in Ulthos for Highest Average Incomes, with 56,180.43 Standard Monetary Units.
