The People's Socialist Republic of Karlera is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.124 billion Karlerans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leningon. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Karleran economy, worth 584 trillion Yofs 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, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 187,018 Yofs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, and modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karlera's national animal is the Sparrow, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Karlera is ranked 209,127^th in the world and 1^st in Fossare for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 5,517.37 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
