The Confederacy of Cantan-Cronos is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Edward Wallenberg with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.041 billion Cantan-Cronosians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uvorborg. The average income tax rate is 35.3%.

The strong Cantan-Cronosian economy, worth 53.7 trillion Credits a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,562 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Faith of Hyzni has been named as Cantan-Cronos's national religion, anti-government web sites are springing up, calling dibs is an unalienable right, and the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cantan-Cronos's national animal is the falcon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Faith of Hyzni.

Cantan-Cronos is ranked 26,461^st in the world and 1^st in Treaty of Entioch for Nicest Citizens, with 20.14 average smiles per day.
