The People's Serene Republic of Kirmizinia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Chancellor Alaynna with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 1.871 billion Kirmizinians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crescentia. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Kirmizinian economy, worth 328 trillion Yannin kutsas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 175,702 Yannin kutsas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets, and cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them. Crime is totally unknown. Kirmizinia's national animal is the Lion fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Kirmizinia is ranked 14,333^rd in the world and 12^th in Lands End for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 8,391.19 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
