The Federation of Kimilbem is a tiny, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 18 million Kimilbemians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.4%.

The thriving Kimilbemian economy, worth 1.30 trillion ans a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Automobile Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 72,059 ans, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 255,067 per year while the poor average 14,698, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kimilbem's national animal is the tiger.

Kimilbem is ranked 304,769^th in the world and 1,069^th in Concord for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring zero on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
