The United States of Karliat is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Wilk Todwayne with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.774 billion Karliatians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kart DAR. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Karliatian economy, worth 881 trillion Ats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 184,742 Ats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The media seems excessively interested in what Wilk Todwayne is wearing this season, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, government ministers are regularly seen in the streets confessing their sins and hammering missiles into plow-shares, and one can wake up in Karliat and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karliat's national animal is the Black Rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Science.

Karliat is ranked 3,653^rd in the world and 1^st in Saide System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 124.57 law-abiding acts per hour.
