The Cyan Border-Republics of Maori Moon is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its vat-grown people, ban on automobiles, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.63 billion Kiwyans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaedi Cyan. The average income tax rate is 81.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kiwyai economy, worth a remarkable 2,541 trillion Flower Yen a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,437 Flower Yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, home renovation projects take decades to complete, and political satirists and late night comedians weep as the government begins cleaning up its act. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Maori Moon's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maori Moon is ranked 214,847^th in the world and 11,723^rd in Osiris for Largest Black Market, with 377 billion Standard Monetary Units.
