The United Federal Republic of Cerespasia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Charles M Henschelberg with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, free-roaming dinosaurs, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.064 billion Cerespasians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Virton. The average income tax rate is 75.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Cerespasian economy, worth 379 trillion Cereskian Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 184,050 Cereskian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Most of the population has had bad experiences with hoes, smoking is banned in public areas, every citizen sounds like a television news anchor, and administrative districts are increasingly defined by their taste in housing architecture. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cerespasia's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Cerespasia is ranked 148,540^th in the world and 3,428^th in the South Pacific for Safest, scoring 60.63 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
