The Precious Gemnation of Cizlhrine is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Sophia Darklight with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.792 billion Cizlhrineans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

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

The frighteningly efficient Cizlhrinean economy, worth a remarkable 1,945 trillion Citrines 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 286,475 Citrines, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The treehouse in Snow Leopard Park is the tallest building in Cizlhrine, the CBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, and the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall. Crime is totally unknown. Cizlhrine's national animal is the Snow Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cult of Books.

Cizlhrine is ranked 157,135^th in the world and 30^th in Jeinnhezslhaunia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 169.21 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
