The Republic of Kiasu-ism is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Lord Vulcan with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed population of 15.191 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 95%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

It is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiasu-ism's national animal is the Homo Kiasu, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Peanut.

Kiasu-ism is ranked 4,330th in the South Pacific and 129,051st in the world for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -10 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
