The Unified Comrade Collective of Kyoto Noku is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Comrade General Qazalus XV with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, zero percent divorce rate, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.545 billion Nokuans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Education receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qazalan-Underground 1. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Nokuan economy, worth a remarkable 3,694 trillion steel royals 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 432,307 steel royals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is known abroad for fast food and nothing else, Kyoto Noku isn't what it used to be, the army lives rent-free in foreigners' heads and houses, and doughnut-makers claim their products are healthy because they are fortified with vitamins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Kyoto Noku's national animal is the comrade, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Comrade General Worship - Qazalism.

Kyoto Noku is ranked 95,829th in the world and 1st in New Archaine for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,425.34 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
