The Federal Republic of Klothia is a very large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 391 million Klothians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Klothia City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Klothian economy, worth 41.4 trillion Klothian Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 105,843 Klothian Marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 339,342 per year while the poor average 25,042, a ratio of 13.6 to 1.

It is cheaper to die in the wilderness than to survive, snitches get riches, aristocracy is given the bird and called out as a lark, and agreeing to appear on TV is often the best way to access social care. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Klothia's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Klothia is ranked 133,310^th in the world and 1,249^th in the Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 508.6 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
