The Literal God of Earth of Cerdenia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by John Longick with a fair hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, vat-grown people, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.122 billion Cerdenians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of People. The average income tax rate is 21.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Cerdenian economy, worth 420 trillion Cerds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is 82,100 Cerds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs, straitjackets are a common religious garb, the government has an entire department dedicated to staring at microscopes and writing down letters, and heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-Cerd treacle machine. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cerdenia's national animal is the Flying Potato, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is God.

Cerdenia is ranked 158,718^th in the world and 213^th in Thaecia for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 192.87 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
