The Community of Kralands is a small, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 23 million Kralandsians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 61.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The weak Kralandsian economy, worth 653 billion Kras a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 28,432 Kras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Exterminator companies deploy nerve gas in turf wars, adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population, and conspiracy theorists allege that the government is spying on them through their carbon monoxide detectors. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kralands's national animal is the Kraken, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Kralands is ranked 301,898^th in the world and 9^th in Clio for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 968.53 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
