The High Empire of The Knockout Gun Gals is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Kim Hyeon Soo with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, infamous sell-swords, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cheerful, devout population of 25.571 billion Shogunans 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 tiny, corrupt government prioritizes Administration, although Industry, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Cheongju. The average income tax rate is 7.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Shogunian economy, worth a remarkable 7,186 trillion Xoos 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 significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 281,058 Xoos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A small country is wondering where their capitol building's gold dome went, the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, the restriction that you must be over 1.1 metres tall to ride a carnotaurus has recently been waived, and the government is purchasing vast amounts of palm oil for plastics production. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Knockout Gun Gals's national animal is the Komodo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hyeonisian.

The Knockout Gun Gals is ranked 90,931^st in the world and 35^th in Carcassonne for Largest Black Market, with 3.64 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
