The Republic of Celestial Emissary is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its frequent executions. The hard-working population of 3.838 billion Celestial Emissaryians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 40.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Celestial Emissaryian economy, worth 169 trillion pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is 44,141 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, euthanasia is legal, former arsonists can be found on local fire brigades, and many of the unemployed have had the fight taken out of them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Celestial Emissary's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Celestial Emissary is ranked 222,903^rd in the world and 4,752^nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens, with 42.83 Whatever.
