The Community of CERN Advanced Research is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Eliezer Rabinovici with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service. The quiet, industrious population of 5.63 billion CERN Scientists 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 government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Geneva Campus. The average income tax rate is 43.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The CERN economy, worth 235 trillion Swiss Francs a year, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,895 Swiss Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, The Scientific Method has been named as CERN Advanced Research's national religion, Eliezer Rabinovici has just been declared ruler of CERN Advanced Research in an international press conference, and suspicious glow-in-the-dark wasps remain a source of terror and awe. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CERN Advanced Research's national animal is the lab rat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is The Scientific Method.

CERN Advanced Research is ranked 31,522^nd in the world and 8^th in Atlantis for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 931.83 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
