The Confederacy of Cyrillic Peoples is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by Cyrillic Federal Council with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 894 million Cyrillics 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, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cyrilgrad. The average income tax rate is 25.0%.

The powerhouse Cyrillic economy, worth 77.5 trillion Cyrils a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 86,661 Cyrils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, the nation's first space rocket -- sponsored by Eckie-Ecola and shaped like an enormous soda bottle -- is being developed, fast-food chefs regularly win Health Innovation Awards for spitting on burgers, and the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cyrillic Peoples's national animal is the Vulture, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Cyrillic Peoples is ranked 44,297^th in the world and 1,412^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,662.14 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
