The Free republic of Kalturkara is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Atali Celan Mckay with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 850 million Karans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government prioritizes Industry, with Education, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wilsonur-Beledivesi. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Karan economy, worth 73.7 trillion Karan Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 86,700 Karan Lire, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Excessive gerrymandering has earned Kalturkara the nickname 'The Democratic Dictatorship', 1% of global paper production is bound for the National Archive, casino tax breaks are even bigger than their jackpots, and Atali Celan Mckay has just been declared ruler of Kalturkara in an international press conference. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kalturkara's national animal is the white-beaked Karan eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kalturkara is ranked 12,831^st in the world and 853^rd in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 77,856.92 Standard Monetary Units.
