The Drake Camper of Cereskia 2 is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Drake Camper with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.839 billion Cereskians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novus Astrana. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cereskian economy, worth 315 trillion Cereskian Pounds a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 171,409 Cereskian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Urban entrepreneurs are busy introducing cockroaches into restaurant kitchens, requests to "pass the salt" are supported by tank divisions, roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, and friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cereskia 2's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Stickminian Violetism.

Cereskia 2 is ranked 261,210^th in the world and 12,489^th in the South Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 7.66 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
