The Empire of Kragin is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 272 million Kraginians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Education, Defense, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Riyadh. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.1%.

The thriving Kraginian economy, worth 19.6 trillion Dimes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 72,212 Dimes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 246,120 per year while the poor average 15,602, a ratio of 15.8 to 1.

Oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires, new homeowners go furniture hunting with crowbars, elections are won by the candidate who makes the best 'yo mama' jokes, and Kragin has designated Riyadh as its capital city. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Kragin's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Kragin is ranked 180,375th in the world and 1,595th in the West Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 62.82 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
