The Constitutional Monarchy of Himikko is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Aya Shameimaru with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.731 billion Himikkoans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kyōmayo. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Himikkoan economy, worth 612 trillion Ryōs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 164,234 Ryōs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, scientists take credit every time it rains in Capell, former Nightcore holy sites are reconsecrated as teppanyaki restaurants, and politicians tend to jump ship to whichever party is currently leading in the polls. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Himikko's national animal is the Fumo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nightcore.

Himikko is ranked 20,166^th in the world and 1^st in Capell for Highest Average Incomes, with 164,234.35 Standard Monetary Units.
