The Republic of Cenabum is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, complete lack of prisons, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 20.386 billion Carnutes are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Social Policy, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cenabum. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Carnutian economy, worth a remarkable 5,818 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 285,392 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums, the Carnutian Babysitters Club has proven to be a huge relief to stressed-out parents across the nation, and the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast. Crime is totally unknown. Cenabum's national animal is the Ferret, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cenabum is ranked 1,715^th in the world and 4^th in European Union for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 6,922.94 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
