The Assailant of Kitsune4 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 6.222 billion Kitsune4ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 53.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Kitsune4ian economy, worth 539 trillion guilders a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,751 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, the military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces", the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, and formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kitsune4's national animal is the squirrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Kitsune4 is ranked 37,110th in the world and 118th in Alliance of Supreme Powers for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,512.29 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
