History
Kabita was founded by the Benevolent Drifter in the medieval ages. Kabita (at this time, a small band of peasants) traveled across the world, establishing Kabitian rule on numerous alleys and sewers throughout North America and the Pacific. When Mactopia was founded, Benevolent Drifter VII built rafts out of old station wagons and Kabita set sail for Mactopia.
The Kabitian Station Wagon Fleet washed up on a shore on a medium-sized island, full of untamed wilderness. The Kabitians quickly began to explore the island, and soon found there was a plentiful supply of coca plants on the island. Kabita quickly became one of the world's most notorious drug outposts.
Government
Benevolent Drifter VII soon got to establishing a capital city, Yorkeland, as well as taking control of the entire country under control of his iron fist. The Benevolent Drifter allows his citizens many civil rights and has aided the drug lords in exploding the economy, mostly due to the fact they are bribing him. Political freedoms are few, though for a brief time under Benevolent Drifter X there was a democracy, though his successor later stamped them out again.
Kabita devotes most of it's attentions to Law and Order to maintain it's fierce control over the populace, though the military also recieves considerable funding. Kabita also maintains the largest and most powerful navy in all of Driftopia. Ironically for a nation of former peasants, the government offers no social programs at all. The government usually sides on the side of science, except in cases that endanger it's stunning environment (Benevolent Drifter IX, also known as Woody Woodstock, was an ardent environmentalist.) The manbearpig is also fiercely protected.
Culture
Kabita is world-reknowned for it's fine coca and poppies, and much of Kabita's wealth is derived from this. Drug farms can be found all across the island, which has the perfect climate for poppy farming.
Kabita was also home to Mactopia's knife-fighting tournaments, in which Kabita had won 120 of in the contest's 165 year history. A few years ago, the Forkanian competitors in the Mactopian Knife-Fighting Tournament were murdered by The Brotherhood of the Undead Monkey Rat. This was the incident that began to escalate toward Mactopia War I.
People in Kabita traditionally wear large feathered hats wherever they go, though this tradition is beginning to disappear as Kabita is beginning to open up to the outside world. Houses are large and cyndrical, and usually made of hard stone or occasionally metal.
The TigerLeopardian Conflict
Recently, Kabita used its naval might to blockade and collapse the weakened TigerLeopardian government after the country was ravaged by a disease. It is heavily rumored that Kabita may have had a hand in assassinating the royal family, though this is still debated. Several million former TigerLeopardians have fled to nearby Romanii Nova. Romanii Nova, which wants to take control of the continent it lies on, is secretly funding TigerLeopardian militants to fight against Kabita's forces. Kabita is responding by selling nuclear weapons to terrorists in Romanii Nova. This "secondhand war" may soon develop into a full blown regional war, say some analysts.
International Relations
Kabita was a large, isolated nation for the longest time, but after the overthrow of the Benevolent Drifters they opened up to the world, losing their militaristic attitude in exchange for a generally more free outlook to the world. Slowly but surely Kabita is becoming a major regional power.
