The State of Kyrsten is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.504 billion Kyrstenians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.
The strong Kyrstenian economy, worth 838 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 72,887 betales, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.
The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and Kyrsten has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kyrsten's national animal is the deer.
Kyrsten is ranked 134,628th in the world and 607th in United States of America for Most Stationary, with 238.9410970776 days.
