The Commonwealth of Cyleia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Silas Adar with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 17.588 billion Cyleians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education, Administration, and Defense also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Erare. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Cyleian economy, worth a remarkable 8,107 trillion racus a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 460,966 racus, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

The nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison, life expectancies inside correctional facilities vastly exceed the national average, and political cartoons depicting Silas Adar's face on a phoenix's buttocks are selling like hotcakes. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cyleia's national animal is the phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Cyleia is ranked 145th in the world and 1st in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 460,966.04 Standard Monetary Units.
