The Democratic Republic of NKlandia is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 1.367 billion NKlandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 16.3%.

The very strong NKlandian economy, worth 89.2 trillion NK Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 65,223 NK Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, there are six more weeks of winter if a northerner sees his shadow, the nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime is totally unknown. NKlandia's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

NKlandia is ranked 43,917^th in the world and 2,420^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
