The Fallenist Realm of Kesmana is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Chief Marshall Fallen with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, prohibition of alcohol, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 9.978 billion Fallenists are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Libertalia. The average income tax rate is 83.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fallenist economy, worth a remarkable 1,388 trillion Pacific dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 139,169 Pacific dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, police drones follow every suspected Peeping Tom, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, and it takes at least three to tango. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kesmana's national animal is the spinner dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Fallenism.

Kesmana is ranked 10,383rd in the world and 608th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 100.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
