The Worthless Pawn of Kuramia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Loki with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 24.778 billion Kuramians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, International Aid, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lokiarchaeota. The average income tax rate is 55.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Kuramian economy, worth a remarkable 1,216 trillion addas a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,076 addas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The only crimes that get investigated are doughnut heists, the Twelve Steps To Logging Off is the most popular mobile download, hundreds of sailors ride the good ship Loki day after day, and constipated disaster survivors are rapidly learning that MRE is short for "Meal Requiring Enemas". Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Kuramia's national animal is the liluye, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kuramia is ranked 258,016^th in the world and 1,134^th in Europeia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -5.39 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
