The Holy Dictatorship of Knowmare is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Ethel Einar Bioteca with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, disturbing lack of elderly people, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.926 billion Knowmareans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Doltux. The average income tax rate is 67.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Knowmarean economy, worth a remarkable 1,182 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 170,791 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Ersatz chicken has left the nation's citizens with a bad taste in their mouths, genetic screening weeds out citizens whose legs don't bend easily at the knee, travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs, and doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Knowmare's national animal is the Screeching Beetle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Uodism.

Knowmare is ranked 187,186th in the world and 4,508th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 67.20490837772 days.
