The United Technocratic Republic of Cinigard is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Consul of the Plenum with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 19.537 billion Cinigardians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Veraleum. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Cinic economy, worth a remarkable 4,981 trillion cins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 254,956 cins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prison reforms have replaced communal luaus with communal loos, the term cold case has taken on a very literal meaning, sworn provincial enemies must be held back in The Consul of the Plenum's cabinet meetings, and small children are frequently chased by rehabilitated pitbulls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cinigard's national animal is the white cinic eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ietsism.

Cinigard is ranked 286,537^th in the world and 391^st in Commonwealth of Liberty for Nicest Citizens, with 0.27 average smiles per day.
