The Arling of Kathil is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Arlessa Candistia vas Baghara with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 13.218 billion Kathilians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yare. The average income tax rate is 19.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Kathilian economy, worth 707 trillion kamas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,544 kamas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Orphanages are closing their doors as the government forces parents to actually raise their children, translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, wounded veterans can only get prosthetics if they agree to become walking billboards for the arms industry, and schoolchildren are taught to boo and hiss at Arlessa Candistia vas Baghara's name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Kathil's national animal is the porpoise, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans, and its national religion is Maumiqism.

Kathil is ranked 108,942^nd in the world and 6^th in Sarnor for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 10,858.98 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
