The Socialist Commonwealth of Kanoshu is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ayaka Kassai with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.853 billion Kanoshuans 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 enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of El'Kassar. The average income tax rate is 99.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Kanoshuan economy, worth a remarkable 1,159 trillion Keonas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 198,115 Keonas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

"Ayaka Kassai got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, it's often raining men (hallelujah) in El'Kassar, dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kanoshu's national animal is the Panlong, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Suruitkuism.

Kanoshu is ranked 289,402^nd in the world and 212^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Primitive, scoring -605.93 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
