The Republic of Kannap is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Daniel Sanders-Wood with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, restrictive gun laws, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 25.821 billion Kannapians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malenium. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Kannapian economy, worth a remarkable 4,767 trillion kanmarks a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Soda Sales. 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 impressive 184,652 kanmarks, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

One-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, the statue in the Kringle Plaza has a solar panel for a hat, and the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Kannap's national animal is the red panda, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Church of Kannap.

Kannap is ranked 280,070th in the world and 280th in Forest for Most Cultured, scoring 57 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
