The Crumbling Empire of Kamijiro is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Sugawara Misaki with a fair hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.687 billion Kamijiroans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miraisaki. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kamijiroan economy, worth 468 trillion jiroes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 127,006 jiroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kamijiroan scientists are mixing chewing tobacco with bacon flavouring in an attempt to craft the perfect male snack, practically perfect royal toddlers tend to say "regrettably not at this juncture" rather than "no", ghost regiments exist only on paper, and faking deafness is the only way to guarantee a holiday in the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kamijiro's national animal is the earthworm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Shintō.

Kamijiro is ranked 18,222nd in the world and 13th in Esportiva for Lowest Crime Rates, with 93.71 law-abiding acts per hour.
