The Community of Sentient Cubes is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning dolphin population. The quiet, industrious population of 122 million Sentient Cubesians 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 Welfare. The average income tax rate is 34.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Sentient Cubesian economy, worth 5.80 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 47,566 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and military spending is on the increase. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sentient Cubes's national animal is the dolphin.

Sentient Cubes is ranked 95,841^st in the world and 2^nd in Puppet Bay for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 12,017.53 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
