The Grand Norse Empire of Khuravia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Niklas II with an iron fist, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, rampant corporate plagiarism, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.226 billion Khuravians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Keiservik. The average income tax rate is 51.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Khuravian economy, worth a remarkable 5,585 trillion silvurmarks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 263,135 silvurmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, the government seizes all major gold finds, foreign governments are looking into weaponizing the infamous Khuravian bee, and the fastest growing demographic of porn viewership is twelve to seventeen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khuravia's national animal is the great raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Northern deism.

Khuravia is ranked 169,147th in the world and 486th in Europe for Most Stationary, with 103.14488537612 days.
