The Republic of North Kanuckistan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Van Ueff III with an even hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 16.71 billion North Kanuckies are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beaverton. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient North Kanuckistanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,870 trillion Kanucks a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,936 Kanucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Female smokers cut their hair and don suits to get into male-only clubs, psychiatrists that date patients are congratulated on their romantic conquests, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, and the government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses. 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 7,357^th in the world and 174^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,837.69 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
