The Republic of Kartokia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Joseph Stojka with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and suspicion of poets. The cynical population of 4.835 billion Kartokis are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gorodi. The average income tax rate is 21.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Kartokian economy, worth 176 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 36,562 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Black tea is only available on the black market, Joseph Stojka has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw, Catholicism has been named as Kartokia's national religion, and the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kartokia's national animal is the Anaconda, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.
Kartokia is ranked 288,024th in the world and 9,979th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 3.81939338892 days.
