The People's Republic of Holy Canglong is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 14 million Holy Canglongians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 63.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The developing Holy Canglongian economy, worth 474 billion Canglong Yuan a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,877 Canglong Yuan, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists, Leader has taken to wearing medal-adorned military uniform in all public appearances, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and all beauty contests have been banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Canglong's national animal is the Divine Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Holy Canglong is ranked 158,330^th in the world and 1^st in The Celestial Concord for Smartest Citizens, with 28.84 quips per hour.
