The Republic of Kharija is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 957 million Kharijans 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 Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 21.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Kharijan economy, worth 30.0 trillion Kharids a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 31,357 Kharids, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
It is common to see Maxémon Trainer listed on Kharijan resumés, gambling is outlawed, military spending is on the increase, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Kharija's national animal is the horse, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Kharija is ranked 132,793rd in the world and 37th in The TWR and NE Puppet Depot for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,386.29 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
