The Statistical Empire of K16 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Mammalmind with an iron fist, and notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.657 billion Kisasans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, with Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fieldslands. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.8%.

The frighteningly efficient K16ian economy, worth 724 trillion kiolas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 198,118 kiolas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 668,276 per year while the poor average 43,478, a ratio of 15.4 to 1.

The population's jaw muscles put sharks to shame, major cities run on potato batteries, it is considered unpatriotic to learn a foreign language, and behind every great person are three dozen other people passing great memos. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. K16's national animal is the mammal, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholic-Mammalism.

K16 is ranked 331,804^th in the world and 55^th in Trica for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -23.45 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
