The Hidden Country of Kiljarit is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Takeshi Kobayashi with an iron fist, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, pith helmet sales, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 38.396 billion Kiljaritians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tirajilik. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Kiljaritian economy, worth an astonishing 14,003 trillion kiljaris a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 364,721 kiljaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Jennifer Government is a bestseller, male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room, endangered bison are herded across the border to prevent them from trampling on native prairie grass, and bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiljarit's national animal is the komodo dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kobayashiism.

Kiljarit is ranked 18,912th in the world and 15th in Canada for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,352.18 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
