The United Socialist States of Celtor is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 739 million Celtorians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Celtorian economy, worth 13.1 trillion Notes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 17,766 Notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, and citizens may not "love, honor and obey" anyone except the State. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Celtor's national animal is the Megalodaunt, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Celtor is ranked 146,897^th in the world and 218^th in The Kodiak Republic for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 609.41 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
