The Colony of Cykler is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 836 million Cyklerians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The strong Cyklerian economy, worth 47.8 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is 57,135 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 368,245 per year while the poor average 3,581, a ratio of 102 to 1.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cykler's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Cykler is ranked 164,146^th in the world and 1^st in Fyn for Most Primitive, scoring -62.05 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
