The Syndacalist Union of Cupcakeatarians is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 12.117 billion Cupcakeatariansists are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Y'ha-nthlei. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient a Cupcakecultist economy, worth a remarkable 2,750 trillion Tagatans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 226,969 Tagatans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Producers insist that movie stars wear crash helmets in every scene, beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings, government statisticians explain census inaccuracies by declaring that "Sith happens", and environmentalists have found an unusual ally in soldiers of fortune. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cupcakeatarians's national animal is the Cupcake eating Shoggath, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Aeonism.

Cupcakeatarians is ranked 281,872nd in the world and 10,672nd in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -12.49 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
