The New People's Republic of Khalya is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Supreme General Victor Mern with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, prohibition of alcohol, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.815 billion Khalyans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nitrefar. The average income tax rate is 67.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Khalyan economy, worth a remarkable 2,562 trillion koins a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 327,908 koins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens tint their front windows to avoid starring in the 'TV Detector Patrol Unit' documentary, a PhD just ain't what it used to be, programmers often reinvent the wheel, and a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khalya's national animal is the phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Collectivism.

Khalya is ranked 1,272^nd in the world and 46^th in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 431.9 kickbacks per hour.
