The Queendom of Knee Garr Alexis is a huge, genial nation, notable for its triple-decker prams, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 280 million Knee Garr Alexisians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 43.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Knee Garr Alexisian economy, worth 20.3 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 72,498 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate, group photos of the members of parliament are often mistaken for family reunions, heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-krona treacle machine, and psychiatrists bizarrely accompany Leader to meetings with foreign heads of state. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Knee Garr Alexis's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
