The Colony of Kana Etou is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 7.726 billion Kana Etouans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 25.9%.

The strong Kana Etouan economy, worth 419 trillion nakfas a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 54,266 nakfas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, pet owners make sure their dogs wear diapers, father-son fishing trips have been banned, and enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. Kana Etou's national animal is the toucan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kana Etou is ranked 225,013^th in the world and 4,128^th in Artificial Solar System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 56.53 law-abiding acts per hour.
