The Republic of Canvalland is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by PM Osborne Rosenbaum with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 13.061 billion Canvish have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bailcast. The average income tax rate is 39.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Canvish economy, worth a remarkable 3,109 trillion Canvish Golcas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 238,046 Canvish Golcas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Nothing in life is promised except death and government support, the government is keeping a watch on all seeing eyes, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime is totally unknown. Canvalland's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Canvish Asatru.

Canvalland is ranked 93,967^th in the world and 4,614^th in Lazarus for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,800.34 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
