The Federal Republic of Cahaya is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its vat-grown people, ban on automobiles, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 316 million Cahayans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rajawali. The average income tax rate is 70.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Cahayan economy, worth 22.5 trillion kupangs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 71,148 kupangs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, children have taken to using semaphore in light of the recent mobile phone ban, and the nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cahaya's national animal is the mousedeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cahaya is ranked 73,866^th in the world and 108^th in Talonia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,333.2 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
