The Kaiserreich of Caverniss is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by King Ainsley Roland with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and frequent executions. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.757 billion Cavernissans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grahamencracker. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Cavernissan economy, worth 223 trillion Cogs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,958 Cogs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Economists speak of trusting in the Tao of Free Market Capitalism, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, genetic research is facing major headwinds, and the most common doctor's prescription is "get out of my consulting room". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Caverniss's national animal is the Grey Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Santaism.

Caverniss is ranked 20,149^th in the world and 245^th in Europe for Most Secular, with 49.22 Atheism Rate.
