The Dolphin Approved Democracy of Celestial Wave is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by President LunarCrystal with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.011 billion Celestians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of LightHaven. The average income tax rate is 75.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Celestian economy, worth 234 trillion Celestial coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 116,647 Celestial coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Airport security is provided by private companies, economics is a shrinking field, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and people say chess victor President LunarCrystal can kill you with mind-bullets. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Celestial Wave's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Atheism.

Celestial Wave is ranked 27,174^th in the world and 4^th in SolarFlare for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 6,413.07 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
