The Constitutional Monarchy of Cirkia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Barry Maxman with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.438 billion Cirkians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Merdian. The average income tax rate is 92.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cirkian economy, worth 158 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 109,947 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There are no more heroes any more, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, and the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cirkia's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Cirkia is ranked 71,005^th in the world and 45^th in Community for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 427.9 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
