The Republic of Kiasu-ism is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mr Lee with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 44.41 billion Kiasu-langs are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The tiny, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 1.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kiasu-lang economy, worth an astonishing 21,149 trillion Peanuts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 476,235 Peanuts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, burial ceremonies have become as routinised as tax forms, there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, and the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Kiasu-ism's national animal is the Homo Kiasu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kiasu-ism is ranked 489^th in the world and 4^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 12,248.23 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
