The Republic of Cantilena is a massive, safe nation, ruled by President with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The quiet, industrious population of 4.857 billion Cantilenans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Melody. The average income tax rate is 33.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Cantilenan economy, worth 452 trillion Cants a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 93,261 Cants, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, most pop videos prominently feature the Cantilenan flag, it is quite common for bar patrons to discuss Wittgenstein over cordials and games of backgammon, and giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cantilena's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Secular.

Cantilena is ranked 143,340th in the world and 351st in Europe for Most Stationary, with 188.66086536808 days.
