The Colony of Cane Toad is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 892 million Cane Toadians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 39.6%.

The Cane Toadian economy, worth 41.0 trillion Cheese Kurds a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 45,951 Cheese Kurds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Genetic researchers have been expelled, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and sick days are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cane Toad's national animal is the Cane Toad, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cane Toad is ranked 176,534^th in the world and 145^th in Fifth Empire for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 112.91 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
