The Imperium of Cycoldia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Christina I II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.677 billion Cycoldians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Empreton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Cycoldian economy, worth a remarkable 1,153 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 150,268 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.

Commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, all gamers have been drafted into the military despite their lack of upper body strength, Harry Potter books are banned, and schoolchildren are arrested for possessing sidewalk chalk without a permit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cycoldia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secularism.

Cycoldia is ranked 160,305th in the world and 2nd in Realms of Taron for Most Stationary, with 125.0687741226 days.
