The Not so Holy Platypus state of Kitzgos is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Lord President Daburra with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, zero percent divorce rate, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, cynical population of 12.748 billion Kitzgosians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belsay. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Kitzgosian economy, worth a remarkable 2,954 trillion Gold Credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 231,758 Gold Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, all facts are created equal, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kitzgos's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Blefism.

Kitzgos is ranked 11,009^th in the world and 409^th in The North Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,143.7 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
