The Republic of Kyupaa is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by the Winterlady with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 32.246 billion Kyupaans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ivdisha. The income tax rate is 100%.

The large but stagnant Kyupaan economy, worth 733 trillion chalices a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 22,760 chalices, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Student athletes gaze forlornly at abandoned porcupineball fields, the new national mascot has to be wheeled onto the field of play, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, and octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kyupaa's national animal is the porcupine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kyupaa is ranked 150,960^th in the world and 472^nd in NationStates for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.16 Crimes Per Hour.
