The Republic of Kaylas is a large, genial nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 196 million Kaylasians 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 relatively small government prioritizes Administration, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. The average income tax rate is 11.0%.

The Kaylasian economy, worth 12.2 trillion CHFS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,282 CHFS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

The jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, babies are a small but significant export, one does not simply walk into the tundra, and economists claim no news is good news. Crime is well under control. Kaylas's national animal is the peking duck.

Kaylas is ranked 57,215^th in the world and 8^th in A Short Walk to Utopia for Most Secular, with 19.09 Atheism Rate.
