The Democratic Flowering Isles of Camellias is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by People's Mistress Azalea Cannabis with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, cheerful population of 7.273 billion Azaleas-Camelliasians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blooming Islets of Azaleas and Cannabis. The average income tax rate is 99.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Camelliasian economy, worth a remarkable 1,658 trillion Hemp-Azaleas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 228,040 Hemp-Azaleas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life, counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients, welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, and a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Camellias's national animal is the Pride Pegasus of Karlton Archipelago, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cannabis.

Camellias is ranked 287,161^st in the world and 295^th in The Union of Democratic States for Most Primitive, scoring -505.2 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
