The Federal State of Kyrkize is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its daily referendums, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 798 million Kyrkizeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Medvedin. The average income tax rate is 68.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Kyrkizean economy, worth 42.0 trillion Ens a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,590 Ens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visiting the best Kyrkizean restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, the government regularly reassures citizens that there are no monsters under their beds, charged suspects often have to wait years before the courts have room to judge their trial, and factories grind to a halt every time there is an election. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kyrkize's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kyrkize is ranked 52,596^th in the world and 2,885^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 71 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
