As with most troubled pasts, Kcaeria's is pitted and gaffed with titanic power struggles, and scarred by many battles.  The future, however, is brightening. The Democratic Republic of Kicaeria is a large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed population of 45 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often. The small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Commerce, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 13%, but much higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Trout Farming. The prinicples of freedom of expression are held dear, voting is held sacrosanct, a referenda may be passed by a one-third vote, the people elect the Supreme Court justices directly, and the government is attempting to impose a new national language on the public. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Kicaeria's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the orator.

Modern historians do not know much about pre-Romagna Kicaeria.  The few surviving accounts come from heavily biased Empire historians; the picture they paint is unappetizing to say the least.  According to the average Imperial snob there was enough sinful practices in the region to damn the entire world to hell.  Examples citied as "reliable" or "proven" include: witchcraft, beastiality, cannibalism, heresy and worship of sticks, ritual murder, human sacrifice, homosexuality, and of course baby rape and murder.  Regardless of whether or not the preceding is true, what is known is that the native people were called the Halemen.  The Halemen -still a distinct ethnicity in Kicaeria today- lived in tribal communities, centered around the hill fort.  Inter-tribal warfare raged often and over trivial causes.  This disorganized state of events did not last for long.
