The United States of Kiribama is a tiny, safe nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. The democratic, devout population of 8 million Kiribamen hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 22.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Kiribaman economy, worth 337 billion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,165 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is totally unknown. Kiribama's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Kiribama is ranked 199,482^nd in the world and 1,819^th in the Pacific for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 31.03 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
