Location: The Land of Kings and Emperors

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Holy Republic of The Kisyran Refugees is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Alexiana Caeron with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.519 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 Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malpos. The average income tax rate is 74%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

The nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, voting is voluntary, the study of medicine is popular throughout The Kisyran Refugees, and the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Malpos Times is sold out. Crime is totally unknown. The Kisyran Refugees's national animal is the Shadow Asp, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Kisyranism, and its currency is the Koranus.

The Kisyran Refugees is ranked 273rd in The Land of Kings and Emperors and 92,639th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -24 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
