The Marine Radio Operator of Cerespasia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Charles M Henschelberg with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and frequent executions. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.969 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 69.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cerespasian economy, worth 589 trillion Cereskian Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 198,684 Cereskian Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, angry citizens complain that there isn't enough geographical diversity on the new banknotes, the country is rumored to be a Brancalandian puppet state, and jail house rock has been replaced with jail house golden oldies. 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 32,484^th in the world and 645^th in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 60,797.55 Standard Monetary Units.
