The Free Land of Caelo is a mid-sized, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 50 million Christians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 11.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Caeloan economy, worth 3.17 trillion gold nuggets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 63,444 gold nuggets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians post explicit photos of themselves on community notice boards, babies are a small but significant export, women are ordered home to reproduce for the glory of the Free Land, and online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Caelo. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Caelo's national animal is the Lion of Judah, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Caelo is ranked 228,663^rd in the world and 1^st in Gates of heaven for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -6 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
