The Prime Hegemony of Kelvaros Prime is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Hegemon Arcilius Merello with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 30.284 billion Primes are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jenera. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Prime economy, worth an astonishing 12,930 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 426,989 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Twice-daily toilet inspection rotas for government buildings are archived for public appraisal, modern warfare's call of duty isn't popular with gamers these days, the nation won three wars against Brancaland this weekend, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kelvaros Prime's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Humanism.

Kelvaros Prime is ranked 1,950^th in the world and 46^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 108.22 flags saluted per person per day.
