The Republic of Cairona is a large, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 148 million Caironians 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 government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Welfare, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 39.4%.

The Caironan economy, worth 8.11 trillion cais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,798 cais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, and religious turf wars have caused frustrated police to pray for divine intervention. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cairona's national animal is the Cai dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Cairona is ranked 121,345^th in the world and 552^nd in the Outback for Highest Poor Incomes, with 26,596.35 Standard Monetary Units.
