The Empire of Cadonio is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.815 billion Cadonioans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nueva Cardenas. The average income tax rate is 91.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cadonioan economy, worth 393 trillion Stag Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 139,850 Stag Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Cadonioan, pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, and chewing tree bark proves to have limited value during childbirth. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cadonio's national animal is the Honey Badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cadonioism.

Cadonio is ranked 13,875^th in the world and 526^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,602.71 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
