The Republic of Cypheri is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Douglas J Hunley with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 21.601 billion Cypherians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zion. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Cypherian economy, worth a remarkable 7,260 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 336,132 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, government buildings are being cleansed of anything that might have racist connotations, Eagle is one of the most popular forenames in Cypheri, and ignorance is considered a politically desirable quality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cypheri's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Science.

Cypheri is ranked 309,475^th in the world and 4,114^th in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -26.34 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
