The United Socialist States of Kiwiwu is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Uwe the Kiwi with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.74 billion Kiwiwuans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Kiwi. The average income tax rate is 72.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Kiwiwuan economy, worth 374 trillion smalls a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 27,272 smalls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Workers can choose whether they prefer offices that smell of pungent body odor or whale vomit, every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, school plays were recently banned due to concerns of child endangerment, and expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiwiwu's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is New Kiwiwifanism.

Kiwiwu is ranked 271,015^th in the world and 8^th in The Sweet Ubiquity for Most Developed, scoring 50.76 on the Human Development Index.
