The Incorporated States of Kiensu is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Jion Kojima with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.506 billion Kiensuans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neo Osaka. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Kiensuan economy, worth 682 trillion pisis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 123,987 pisis, with the richest citizens earning 8.5 times as much as the poorest.

The well-to-do in the West Pacific are never on time for important appointments, members of ethnic minorities are more often called "boy" or "girl" than by their actual names, the legislature keeps promising "more study" of corruption allegations against the parliamentary whip system, and Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested. Crime is totally unknown. Kiensu's national animal is the ghost snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Capitalism.

Kiensu is ranked 21,825^th in the world and 466^th in the West Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 81.23 on the Human Development Index.
