The Golden Empire of Kratistolies is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Primarch with an iron fist, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, digital currency, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 22.833 billion Kratosians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kallipolis. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kratosian economy, worth an astonishing 10,498 trillion Drachmas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 459,782 Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, Kratosian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, and old people living in plastic bubbles complain about a new type of social isolation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kratistolies's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheistic State Worship.

Kratistolies is ranked 315,218^th in the world and 12,969^th in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with zero Standard Monetary Units.
