The Protectorate of KARTA 1 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Teodora Nikolic with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, unlimited-speed roads, and vat-grown people. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.263 billion KARTA 1ians 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 Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of My House. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient KARTA 1ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,055 trillion tokens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 247,540 tokens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, parents plead with their children to consider prostitution instead of philosophy, street preachers sell salvation with a side order of shame on every corner, and burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. KARTA 1's national animal is the fish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pravoslavna.
KARTA 1 is ranked 6,775th in the world and 339th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 109.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
