The Federation of Cante Bunin is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Hane Blanc with an iron fist, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 15.677 billion Cante Buninians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boston. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Cante Buninian economy, worth a remarkable 3,139 trillion lire a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 200,273 lire, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick, the studies of art and philosophy are banned, the government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses, and government spending has hit an all-time low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cante Bunin's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Islam.

Cante Bunin is ranked 13,245th in the world and 11th in Boston for Most Stationary, with 1,913.5644350402 days.
