Governmental overview

The Kakyristan government is generally a bunch of corrupt, poor politicians who employ their goon gangs to carry out business. Being openly welcoming to terrorists and exiled peoples, fugitives and criminals makes them popular on the international arms market, but not in the international community. The terrorists being harboured in the mountains of Kakyristan are politically classed as – Endangered Citizens – or Useful to the economy. Many goings on are given a blind eye or not noticed at all, when they have better things to do at hand. When the Permanent government is installed, at least by 2008, they will take on the task of stabilising the country as reminding the citizens they have laws to keep to and abide by. Law at the moment is generally taken on by lynch mobs and religious leaders. With the irregular forces mounting many of these cleansing missions. Foreigners are looked on by the locals as dangerous, many are not, but as with the violent past of the Kyr people, they fear the outsiders coming into their land and disposing of their leaders. It is not illegal to travel to Kakyristan, just inadvisable to some areas, but Foreigners, especially westerners, are looked on with suspicion by many orthodox people. However the Kyr are encouraged to explore lands and travel, learn languages, cultures and adopt traditions – to an extent.
