The Chair Kingdom of Cerdenia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Chair I with a fair hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, smutty television, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.61 billion Cerdenians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chairdenia. The average income tax rate is 3.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Cerdenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,391 trillion Chaircoins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 119,880 Chaircoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Ships no longer sail as no one wants to encounter Cerdenian pirates, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, the "feminist protest" defence is increasingly common for cases of armed robbery, and most Cerdenians would sell their own grandmother. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Cerdenia's national animal is the Flying Chair, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Cult of the Chair.

Cerdenia is ranked 36,610^th in the world and 16^th in Thaecia for Largest Populations, with 11.6 billion capita.
