The Federation of Kurikia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Alexi Malakov with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 9.922 billion Kurikians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Healthcare, although Defense, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Markovgrad. The average income tax rate is 29.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Kurikian economy, worth 738 trillion Kurikian Rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,425 Kurikian Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, troop transports blacken the sky as the military commences Operation Desert Ocean, nation-building is the new national pastime, and selling bombs to terrorists has become government policy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Kurikia's national animal is the birb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Kurikia is ranked 66,476^th in the world and 1,467^th in The East Pacific for Safest, scoring 96.32 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
