The Holy Empire of CanofBeans is a titanic, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, flagrant waste-dumping, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.857 billion CanofBeansians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 80.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient CanofBeansian economy, worth a remarkable 2,910 trillion Lumbagos a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 210,059 Lumbagos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens worry more about a split end than their deceased parent, brain-freeze has taken on a new meaning, the police are destroying all photographic evidence of their own existence, and major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CanofBeans's national animal is the Beans, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

CanofBeans is ranked 135,620^th in the world and 7,317^th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,251.35 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
