The Commonwealth of Central Kadigan is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 24.985 billion Kadigans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Almater. The average income tax rate is 97.8%.

The enormous but underdeveloped Kadigan economy, worth a remarkable 1,572 trillion dinars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 62,919 dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pre-takeoff checks last longer than the flights themselves, citizens who plan overseas vacations are barred from running for political office, nouveau riche farmers diligently take care of their golden calf herds, and there's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Central Kadigan's national animal is the Eurasian lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Central Kadigan is ranked 49,181^st in the world and 12^th in Philosophers for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 77.22 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
