The Matriarchy of Canllias is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Her Highness Mother Empress Regina with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.821 billion Canlliasians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salve Regina. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Canlliasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,373 trillion Ivons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 175,663 Ivons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Money grows on trees, almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, candlelit dinners are less romantic with a flickering LED, and chain-gangs are often seen toting barges and lifting bales. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Canllias's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Canllias is ranked 279,192nd in the world and 6,847th in the Rejected Realms for Most Primitive, scoring -328.77 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
