The Republic of Ceden is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Albert Jones Hoffing with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, anti-smoking policies, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.104 billion Cedenians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sentinel. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Cedenian economy, worth a remarkable 7,803 trillion kronors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 408,486 kronors, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Turning the other cheek is accompanied by a polite letter of complaint, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, the Finance Ministry posts hourly updates on where taxpayer money is spent, and a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ceden's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Ceden is ranked 496th in the world and 10th in the West Pacific for Most Secular, with 99.21 Atheism Rate.
