The Gardens of Eden-burgh of CSB SA Union is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Caesar Salad Boy with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 1.394 billion CSB SA Unionians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Andrews. The average income tax rate is 93.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming CSB SA Unionian economy, worth 125 trillion Saint Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 89,923 Saint Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Atheists on vacation find Love's scriptures make useful doorstops, criminal convictions are routinely thrown out because the accused's grandmother didn't get to testify about their good character, calling dibs is an unalienable right, and a vast monorail network carries people all over the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CSB SA Union's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Love.

CSB SA Union is ranked 159,276th in the world and 785th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 284.19 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
