The frighteningly efficient Cencene economy, worth 188 trillion Amoreheart Gems a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,625 Amoreheart Gems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's diplomats shake hands with those whose hands are drenched in the blood of innocents, the new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, major boxing matches are held in government buildings, and "Idol-Worship for the Apathetic" workshops are cancelled when no-one bothers to show up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Joycencia's national animal is the Whisperwing Moth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bahá'í Faith.
