The Republic of North Kanuckistan is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Van Ueff III with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.832 billion North Kanuckies 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beaverton. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient North Kanuckistanian economy, worth 998 trillion Kanucks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,584 Kanucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is something rotten in the state of North Kanuckistan, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, and 'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Kanuckistan's national animal is the Moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

North Kanuckistan is ranked 10,933^rd in the world and 303^rd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 3,144.86 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
