Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Order of the Dove and Rose of Cemaes is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by President Colius with a fair hand, and remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.517 billion are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Social Equality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Loveston. The average income tax rate is 85%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Cemaes has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, and voting is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown. Cemaes's national animal is the Puffin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Shire.

Cemaes is ranked 212th in Social Liberal Union and 122,285th in the world for Stupidest Citizens, scoring 2 on the Average Edu-UNtellignce® Test Score.
