The Allied Huggable Fluffies of Kitabo is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Leland Gaunt with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 46.47 billion Kitaboans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 85.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Kitaboan economy, worth a remarkable 5,044 trillion quads a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,546 quads, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, and fifteen-year-olds cannot walk younger siblings to school without a professional Childcare and Education Certificate. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive. Kitabo's national animal is the likito, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kitabo is ranked 305,599^th in the world and 4,480^th in The North Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -28.8 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
