The Prodigious Musician of Kachikawawa is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Monsieur Practice with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 4.784 billion Kachikawawans 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 Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pagalingling. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kachikawawan economy, worth 572 trillion Guardivaris a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 119,651 Guardivaris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, tourists call Kachikawawan beach towns "the fine coastline", and the optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kachikawawa's national animal is the snoring hummingbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is y'all need Jesus.

Kachikawawa is ranked 36,227^th in the world and 413^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,904.27 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
