The United Island Kingdom of Khytenna is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Blaze I with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.881 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Welfare, and Defence. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khytenna Central City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, followed by Tourism and Uranium Mining.

Children have taken to using semaphore in light of the recent mobile phone ban, the government has begun breaking all large businesses into thousands of mom-and-pop general stores, citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, and heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khytenna's national animal is the khytennan tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Kyto Crown .

Khytenna is ranked 2nd in vvardenfell and 13,196th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
