The Federation of Cannae is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 287 million Cannaeans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magnitos. The average income tax rate is 23.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Cannaean economy, worth 19.9 trillion Fresces a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,412 Fresces, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling", the weather is the nation's most risqué topic of conversation, and surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cannae's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Cannae is ranked 56,390^th in the world and 66^th in Covenant Shores for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 53,239.02 Standard Monetary Units.
