The Candle in the WA office of Kainin is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rainin with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, enforced nudity, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 2.987 billion Kaininians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of World Assembly Offices. The average income tax rate is 87.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kaininian economy, worth 534 trillion Candle Waxes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 178,972 Candle Waxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Royalist is the most offensive slur in the Kaininian language, billion-Candle Wax sentient AI killbots roll through the streets dispensing hot dogs and T-shirts, it's often raining men (hallelujah) in World Assembly Offices, and Rainin's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kainin's national animal is the Christmas Bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Athyism.

Kainin is ranked 3,364^th in the world and 141^st in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 64.41 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
