The Empathic Eye of Kathricore is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, ubiquitous missile silos, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 7.46 billion Kaths 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orso Vareduaea. The average income tax rate is 89.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Kath economy, worth 740 trillion Effigy Laris a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 99,317 Effigy Laris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Several inches are being added to first class seating, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, there's more than one way to skin a diplomat, and the first half of cabinet meetings include Leader complaining about the reasonable nation theory (Kathricore has found 3 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kathricore's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Krulius Thoroth.

Kathricore is ranked 45,228^th in the world and 60^th in Anteria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
