The United Federation of Central Nation is a behemoth, safe nation, renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 50.151 billion Centurions are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Copenhagen. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Centurion economy, worth a remarkable 6,699 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 133,591 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, and textbooks are exactly twice as heavy as they used to be. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Central Nation's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Messianic Judaism.

Central Nation is ranked 795th in the world and 1st in North America for Safest, scoring 163.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
