The Autocratic Dictatorship of Kitzgos is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Anson with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 7.549 billion Kitzgosians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belsay. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Kitzgosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,664 trillion Kit Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 220,531 Kit Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Few that venture into government archives are ever seen again, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, the latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, and this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kitzgos's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Blefism.

Kitzgos is ranked 13,136^th in the world and 504^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 9,850.33 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
