The Cheesy Republic of Cliyf Drines is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Elder Putz with an even hand, and renowned for its lack of airports, smutty television, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 21.013 billion Cliyf Drinesians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maple Town. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cliyf Drinesian economy, worth a remarkable 2,859 trillion Canadian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 136,091 Canadian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, party affiliation is just as irrelevant as campaign promises, virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade, and children who refuse to share their crayons are arrested. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cliyf Drines's national animal is the Beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Cliyf Drines is ranked 11,202^nd in the world and 28^th in Canada for Most Developed, scoring 90.1 on the Human Development Index.
