The Federal Republic of Kannae is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Prime Minister Lazar Kostovic with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ritual sacrifices, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.942 billion Kannaeans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Prijkovka. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kannaean economy, worth 288 trillion Denars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,200 Denars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, endangered bison are herded across the border to prevent them from trampling on native prairie grass, children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, and corporations have to consult a fifty-page "sanctions spreadsheet" to determine which countries they are allowed to do business with. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kannae's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Kannean Paganism.

Kannae is ranked 151,366^th in the world and 125^th in The Land of Kings and Emperors for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,020.3 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
