The Holy Empire of Kiev Ruse is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Prince Deigo with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, prohibition of alcohol, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.247 billion Kiev Ruseans 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of kiev. The average income tax rate is 70.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kiev Rusean economy, worth 336 trillion Cocos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 103,699 Cocos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's declaring that sharing nukes is caring, the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla, major archaeological findings are frequently bulldozed to make way for new buildings, and violently opinionated speakers can be heard preaching their hateful views on every street corner. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiev Ruse's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kiev Ruse is ranked 154,442^nd in the world and 4,829^th in Osiris for Most Politically Free, scoring 50.1 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
