The Kingdom of Kevolatilla is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 909 million Kevoquaits are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Poetry. The average income tax rate is 62.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Kevolatillan economy, worth 29.5 trillion chens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 32,484 chens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, the government funds large training centres to turn cats into functioning members of society, and members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kevolatilla's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Kevolatilla is ranked 208,819th in the world and 4,608th in Balder for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring 18.16 on the Hayek Index.
