The Hidden Country of Kiljarit is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Takeshi Kobayashi with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 38.359 billion Kiljaritians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tirajilik. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Kiljaritian economy, worth an astonishing 13,981 trillion kiljaris a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 364,490 kiljaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business, and invasive species are hunted by the gendarmerie. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiljarit's national animal is the komodo dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kobayashiism.

Kiljarit is ranked 70,645th in the world and 36th in Canada for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,323.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
