The Kingdom of CAEDALPE is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 206 million CAEDALPEians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 45.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong CAEDALPEian economy, worth 14.3 trillion pixels a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 69,440 pixels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Pranking is an art form, five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, an increasing number of citizens believe the world is flat, and it's best not to ask what goes into CAEDALPE City Fried Chicken's secret blend of herbs and spices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CAEDALPE's national animal is the art, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

CAEDALPE is ranked 59,993^rd in the world and 1^st in CAEDALPE for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,694.34 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
