The Ocean-Washed Archipelago of Kanaia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jack with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 46.392 billion Kanaians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, outspoken government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Healthcare and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rufion. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Kanaian economy, worth an astonishing 13,266 trillion Adrians a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 285,968 Adrians, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Rufion Film Festival recently voted 'Kanaian Getting Hit By Football' as best film, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, and the police turn a blind eye to desecration if it's done in the name of religion or protest. Crime is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kanaia's national animal is the Oliphant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kanaia is ranked 328,968th in the world and 382nd in 10000 Islands for Nicest Citizens, with 0.18 average smiles per day.
