The Federal Republic of Cahaya is a huge, safe nation, notable for its vat-grown people, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 297 million Cahayans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rajawali. The average income tax rate is 70.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Cahayan economy, worth 21.4 trillion kupangs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 72,120 kupangs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is plagued with unethical researchers, transgender and agender are on the education agenda, any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, and dynamite sales and concert audiences are booming. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cahaya's national animal is the mousedeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cahaya is ranked 141,261^st in the world and 328^th in Talonia for Most Patriotic, with 10.46 flags saluted per person per day.
