The Unrepenant Imperium of Kityar is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Tsar Kalaka with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.707 billion Kityaroes are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bulglarez. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Kityarian economy, worth 279 trillion Flints a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 164,024 Flints, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

A firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away, children making baking soda volcanos are questioned by the police, massive new slaughterhouses are being hailed as a sign of progress, and the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kityar's national animal is the Greater Demon Tsar's Vampire Bat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Black Phoenix Gods.

Kityar is ranked 4,066^th in the world and 1^st in RGBN for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 10,738.04 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
