The Christian Socialist Republic of Cipravia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Padre Max with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.684 billion Cipravians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valença. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Cipravian economy, worth 170 trillion Deliras 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 led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 63,709 Deliras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, crowds of flag-burning protesters tend to accidentally become crowds of burning protesters, children dream of becoming physicians and physicists, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cipravia's national animal is the Preguiça, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cristianismo.

Cipravia is ranked 86,631^st in the world and 62^nd in Portugal for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 93.67 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
