The Holy Light of Kaidan

“Let there be light for Kaidan”

Overview • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Holy Light of Kaidan is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Kai with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.075 billion Kaidanians 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kyon. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kaidanian economy, worth 645 trillion marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 158,502 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds, the average commuter spends four hours a day driving to and from work, museums stand half-empty as all foreign exhibits are returned to their countries of origin, and there are no more heroes any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaidan's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Kaidanism.

Kaidan is ranked 299,438^th in the world and 548^th in Starlight for Fattest Citizens, with 4.7 Obesity Rate.
