The State of K 0 is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 26.845 billion K 0ians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Education is also considered important, while Spirituality and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. The average income tax rate is 6.9%.

The strong K 0ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,017 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,908 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Liard has just been declared ruler of K 0 in an international press conference, a major religion has been named as K 0's national religion, there is now a private sector based on doomsday devices (K 0 has found 1 easter egg), and corporate lawyers are joyfully combing through the new tax code for any new loopholes for their clients. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. K 0's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

K 0 is ranked 243,181^st in the world and 3^rd in Khartoum for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.9 law-abiding acts per hour.
