The Federation of Kigdenburg is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Peter 1 with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and smutty television. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.218 billion Kigdenburgians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mohitiato. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.2%.

The strong Kigdenburgian economy, worth 111 trillion Tergens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 50,444 Tergens, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 174,597 per year while the poor average 10,648, a ratio of 16.4 to 1.

Student exchange programs are in trouble as everyone wants to leave but no-one wants to come, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, posters of politicians in sensual poses can be found on the walls of teenagers' rooms, and Orthodoxy has been named as Kigdenburg's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Kigdenburg's national animal is the White Bear, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Orthodoxy.

Kigdenburg is ranked 73,379^th in the world and 3^rd in The Land of Great Novorrossia for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50.99 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
