The Industrial Autocracy of Kromkarie is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Vincent Hick with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, restrictive gun laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 6.646 billion Kromkarieans 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Banesteppe. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.3%.
The thriving Kromkariean economy, worth 497 trillion Croms a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 74,801 Croms, with the richest citizens earning 9.8 times as much as the poorest.
The inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only, pre-takeoff checks last longer than the flights themselves, all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Banesteppe, and the Federal Council of Kromkarie has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Kromkarie's national animal is the Poocheski, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Kromkarie is ranked 120,297th in the world and 4,733rd in Osiris for Highest Food Quality, scoring 19.5 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
