The State of Centaurean is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 29.428 billion Centaureanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.5%.

The strong Centaureanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,144 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Gambling. Average income is 38,883 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, Centaurean is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, voting is voluntary, and programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours. Crime is moderate. Centaurean's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Centaurean is ranked 261,453^rd in the world and 8^th in Marshall Islands for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.72 kickbacks per hour.
