The People's Republic of Konnerstan is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 450 million Konnerstanians 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, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 71.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Konnerstanian economy, worth 27.6 trillion Sterlings a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,291 Sterlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Bigtopian interference in domestic elections is always democratically sanctioned, imitation is the sincerest form of felony, former stunt pilots are unable to pass the licence test to fly a drone, and dentists routinely perform open heart surgery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Konnerstan's national animal is the Frog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Konnerstan is ranked 186,316th in the world and 292nd in Refugia for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
