The Republic of Kiraina is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Maximilian Vöss with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, enslaved workforce, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 2.29 billion Kirainans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fulicastria. The average income tax rate is 81.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Kirainan economy, worth 341 trillion Mavems a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,029 Mavems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, police conduct weekly raids looking for contraband cheeseburgers, the National Art Gallery's newest exhibit is the 500-year-old Luna Lisa, and the government funds large training centres to turn Golden Eagles into functioning members of society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiraina's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Kiraina is ranked 4,359^th in the world and 30^th in 10000 Islands for Most Patriotic, with 80.23 flags saluted per person per day.
