The Reborn States of Karnea is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by President Movera with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, complete lack of prisons, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.643 billion Karneans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karnopolisian. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Karnean economy, worth a remarkable 2,319 trillion Karns a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 217,968 Karns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, and video game protagonists bear striking resemblances to major political figures. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Karnea's national animal is the Eurasian Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No National Religion.

Karnea is ranked 274,828^th in the world and 727^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.63 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
