The State of Cambany is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 560 million Cambanians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lilsville. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Cambanian economy, worth 54.0 trillion Cambanian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 96,421 Cambanian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", and officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cambany's national animal is the Robin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cambany is ranked 16,504^th in the world and 349^th in Europe for Highest Food Quality, scoring 129.14 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
