The State of Kanawhay is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 35.991 billion Kanawhayians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, although Healthcare and Education are also considered important, while Defense and Law & Order aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.9%.

The strong Kanawhayian economy, worth a remarkable 1,296 trillion betales a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 36,023 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Education and welfare spending are on the rise, surveillance cameras are banned, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and Kanawhay has designated District City as its capital city. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Kanawhay's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Kanawhay is ranked 123,804^th in the world and 476^th in State for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
