The Federation of Kishoth is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 9 million Kishothians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.9%.

The strong Kishothian economy, worth 510 billion guilders a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 56,712 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

The Kishothian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, families consisting of more than three people are forced to split up, drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth, and captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kishoth's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kishoth is ranked 220,349^th in the world and 43^rd in Crimsons puppets for Rudest Citizens, with 35.04 insults per minute.
