The Democratic States of Cemomes is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its restrictive gun laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working population of 7.639 billion Cemomesians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.3%.

The very strong Cemomesian economy, worth 353 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. Average income is 46,224 pounds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 229,069 per year while the poor average 5,289, a ratio of 43.3 to 1.

Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Cemomes's national animal is the horse.

Cemomes is ranked 299,771^st in the world and 4,052^nd in The catholic military orders for Highest Poor Incomes, with 5,289.4 Standard Monetary Units.
