The group of 400-500 people settled about 200 miles from where they started and arrived a cold and barren place, which it soon became known as, Kansiov City. The very same day, on the 12 May, 1843, Demtri declared the land, "Land for the followers" and became the first Ruler of the young Kansiovian Nation. The Nation is well known for its natural beauty which is mainly untouched by urban developments due to the Green Kansiov project.

The Economy of Kansiov has grown by a lot, since the 1950s. The Backbone of the Kansiovian Economy comes from mining, Arms Developments and Tourism. Ming comes mainly from the Coal and Iron ore deposits in the Barren lands of the Northern Territories and oil platforms in the Gulf of Kansiov. Arms and Developments mainly selling of Kansiovian-made weapons into in International Market by the KMI and Tourism which comprises mainly of adventure seekers and love makers who enjoy the wonderful weather and lovely country side of the Northern Terriories.

One of the Kansiovian Government's efforts to preserve Kansiov's wonderful enviroment is Green Kansiov which express Kansiov's wonderful nature in the form of songs, in a 24 hour concert held in every major Kansiovian City. The event was an instant sucess with 67% of the public willing to add in an extra 2% in their income tax to keep Kansiov Clean and Green for holiday-makers and themselves. This also increased revenue for the Tourism board to almost K$0.96 trillion a year.

Mining

Kansiov has about 1230 Coal Mines, 2240+ Iron Mines, 500+ Gold Mines, less than 10 Diamond mines in the country itself. This provides almost 13% to the GDP (total) for the Nation. Mining has recently been restricted due to new Enviorment laws imposed and new Safety Regulations has closed down 300-400 Mines as the Companies were not willing to pay that much for Welfare laws. Despite this, Mining is still a major component in the Kansiovian Economy. Safety for miners have recently been greatly improved, and manpower is reduced in Mines as well. Machines are now a common sight at Kansiovian mines, and death toll in mines have dropped from 234 to only a mere 31 a year(2006 sources).
