The Taisuist Republic of Flardania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Arata Kasuga with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 17.732 billion Kirishinans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Heiwa. The average income tax rate is 83.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kirishinan economy, worth a remarkable 2,603 trillion Weidais a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,799 Weidais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Social media sites prompt users to send birthday greetings to unresponsive nonagenarians, the acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flardania's national animal is the Kitsune, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Onjōism.

Flardania is ranked 5,163^rd in the world and 3^rd in Cynosure for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 14,261.6 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
