The Kingdom of Candanadium is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Pieter von Juppertal with an even hand, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, devout population of 16.999 billion Candanadians 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 Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Konigstadt. The average income tax rate is 80.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Candanadian economy, worth a remarkable 3,882 trillion thalers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 228,374 thalers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The most recent election was a close race between Pieter von Juppertal and Pieter von Juppertal, rogue nations are placing suspiciously large bulk orders for student laptops, people transfer their assets to bank accounts in Manamana before getting divorced, and exports are stamped with "made by the invisible hand you commies". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Candanadium's national animal is the polar bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Eostrism.

Candanadium is ranked 129,822^nd in the world and 12^th in The Democratika for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,526.87 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
