The Benevolent Queendom of Divine Cervine is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Arbeaone with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, lack of airports, and keen interest in outer space.

The frighteningly efficient Divine Cervinean economy, worth a remarkable 5,959 trillion ¤ luminous orbs 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 377,702 ¤ luminous orbs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Divine Cervine's national animal is the iridescent-winged purple peryton, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
