The Armed Republic of Kitzerpan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Supremis Hudelia with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, deadly medical pandemics, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.428 billion Kitzerpanians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Venstros. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Kitzerpanese economy, worth 587 trillion Holo-Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 132,712 Holo-Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 565,508 per year while the poor average 20,027, a ratio of 28.2 to 1.

Slaving over a hot stove to cook the family dinner isn't metaphorical in Kitzerpan, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, and motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kitzerpan's national animal is the Looper znarp, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kitzerpan is ranked 92,429^th in the world and 4,094^th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,606.38 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
