The Empire of Kezzys is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Caesar with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.025 billion Kezzysians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Constantinople. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kezzysian economy, worth a remarkable 1,468 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 182,954 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty, road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, and fast food restaurants everywhere are under the control of a gigantic government corporation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kezzys's national animal is the Gorilla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Judaism.

Kezzys is ranked 1,082nd in the world and 2nd in The League for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 5,271.28 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
