The Kingdom of Cunnickia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by King Victor VIII with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 8.733 billion Cunnickians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Charlemagnia City. The average income tax rate is 89.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cunnickian economy, worth 826 trillion Cunnickian Ffrancs a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,587 Cunnickian Ffrancs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps, citizens insist that there's no law against standing downwind when marijuana crops are burned off, and rugby players that knock each other over always stop to make sure the other fellow is okay. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cunnickia's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cunnickian Christianity.

Cunnickia is ranked 10,916^th in the world and 39^th in The Union of Democratic States for Highest Food Quality, scoring 155.29 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
