The Federation of Caelestisa is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Ulysses Sankara with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.359 billion Caelestisans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ouraniosia. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Caelestisan economy, worth 86.2 trillion Ashervaads a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,396 Ashervaads, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, jail house rock has been replaced with jail house golden oldies, and an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Caelestisa's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Pastafarianism.

Caelestisa is ranked 47,423^rd in the world and 508^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,097.74 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
