The Republic of Ktenetsanes is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, devotion to social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.778 billion Ktenetsanesians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ktenetsanesian economy, worth 823 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,440 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Both criminals and civilians are DOA, organ donation rates have hit a new low, children of nonreligious parents are often barred from school festival events, and one-stop superstores divide and conquer family businesses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ktenetsanes's national animal is the Python, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ktenetsanes is ranked 12,545^th in the world and 405^th in Two for Lowest Crime Rates, with 97.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
