“Utinam logica falsa tuam philosophiam totam suffodiant”

The Divine Cakedom of Stephanephpolis is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Divine Empress Cake with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.635 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stephanephpolis City. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Tourism and Information Technology.

Citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, the Stephanephpolis Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, and skateparks can be found in every city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stephanephpolis's national animal is the cakezilla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the stephamunera.

Stephanephpolis is ranked 319th in the region and 39,185th in the world for Best Weather.
