The Statistical Empire of K16 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Mammalmind with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.574 billion Kisasans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, with Administration also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fieldslands. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.2%.

The frighteningly efficient K16ian economy, worth 686 trillion kiolas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 192,076 kiolas, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,639,017 per year while the poor average 3,949, a ratio of 415 to 1.

Public executions just aren't the cheery spectacles they once were, recognised healthcare professionals treat diabetes with a grain of sugar in a barrel of water, the nation's soldiers sleep four to a bed in order to use space economically, and legions of police officers force people to move into massive urban apartments. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. K16's national animal is the mammal, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholic-Mammalism.

K16 is ranked 87,018^th in the world and 15^th in Trica for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,680.56 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
