The Federal Republic of Commae is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning Son the Hedge-mower population. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 464 million Commaeans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 7.6%.

The Commaean economy, worth 25.8 trillion Commaen Franks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 55,615 Commaen Franks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

A bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, the nation's latest batch of politicians include internet comedians, an alleged serial killer, and a highly trained Son the Hedge-mower, surveillance cameras are banned, and medical lawsuits are out of control. Crime is relatively low. Commae's national animal is the Son the Hedge-mower, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Commae is ranked 197,213^th in the world and 34^th in The Marble Arch for Most Politically Free, scoring 49.33 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
