The United Communities of Cacatuoidea is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Eleanor McKenzie with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.805 billion Cacatuoideans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Probosciger. The average income tax rate is 74.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cacatuoidean economy, worth 655 trillion Aurums a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 136,356 Aurums, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, treaties are taken to be mere rules of thumb, and engine room hooch is the drink of choice among the nation's navy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cacatuoidea's national animal is the Cockatoo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cacatuoidea is ranked 10,749^th in the world and 231^st in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 99.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
