The Republic of Kawaii Goldfish is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.182 billion Kawaii Goldfishians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Kawaii Goldfishian economy, worth 818 trillion Waters a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,030 Waters, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
Former nobles are being issued new identities in the wake of the end of serfdom, Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, you can bet your bottom dollar that gambling will cost you an arm and a leg, and politicians preface their speeches with a declaration that any resemblance to speeches given by individuals living or dead is purely coincidental. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kawaii Goldfish's national animal is the Goldfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Kawaii Goldfish is ranked 96,874th in the world and 2,051st in Balder for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,750.23 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
