The State of CBI is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 29.002 billion CBIians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Defense and Administration receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The thriving CBIian economy, worth a remarkable 1,626 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 56,085 betales, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 349,360 per year while the poor average 3,850, a ratio of 90.7 to 1.

Citizens are bombarded with advertising from their compulsory minature radios, foreigners are treated with great suspicion, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, and CBI has designated District City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. CBI's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

CBI is ranked 70,537th in the world and 136th in United States of America for Highest Food Quality, scoring 28.62 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
