The Republic of Kantas is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, triple-decker prams, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 19.737 billion Kantainians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arcadia. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kantanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,148 trillion Koloseses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 108,878 Koloseses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them, being Leader has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, pet owners make sure their dogs wear diapers, and residents are readily ratting out rats in restaurants. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kantas's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Kantas is ranked 58,409^th in the world and 3^rd in Scoria for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,729.61 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
