The Empire of Cadright is a small, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The quiet, industrious population of 26 million Cadrightians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 31.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Cadrightian economy, worth 1.03 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,653 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cadright's national animal is the crocodile.

Cadright is ranked 76,566^th in the world and 474^th in the Plains of Perdition for Nicest Citizens, with 15.9 average smiles per day.
