The Federal Democratic Empire of Codyn is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Hufus I with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, devout population of 9.921 billion Codynianos 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Codyberg. The average income tax rate is 67.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Codyniano economy, worth a remarkable 1,842 trillion Platinum Beeses a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 185,699 Platinum Beeses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Diplomatic missions are often mistaken as declarations of war, nobles' fancy titles no longer help them cut in line at the supermarket, the "do ya feel lucky, punk?" scene is on the core syllabus at the National Police Academy, and Representatives, Inc has sponsored bake sales and government bills. Crime is relatively low. Codyn's national animal is the Capivara, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cristianismo.

Codyn is ranked 14,817^th in the world and 19^th in Portugal for Most Developed, scoring 88.37 on the Human Development Index.
