The Respùblica of Kiyadimundika is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Chancellor Cyprien Trémaux with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed population of 9.885 billion Kiyadis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Azzamaret City. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Kiyadi economy, worth 769 trillion crowns a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 77,812 crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies, judges are all-powerful, Max Barry is this year's Miss Kiyadimundika, and Kiyadis refer to transgender people with insults instead of pronouns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiyadimundika's national animal is the kangaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orodism.

Kiyadimundika is ranked 11,184^th in the world and 63^rd in Conch Kingdom for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,483.03 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
