The Kingdom of Kanis is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King William of Kanis with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 18.254 billion Kanisians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kanis. The average income tax rate is 81.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Kanisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,480 trillion Florins a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,130 Florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The state considers itself the 'third parent' of every child in the nation, King William of Kanis has been known to make speeches in fishing waders, the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard, and the government sends submarines to retrieve bodies from shipwrecked submarines. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kanis's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kanis is ranked 280,935^th in the world and 98^th in Gay for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.64 kickbacks per hour.
