The Humanist Republic of Krantstan is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kommissar Mott with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.522 billion Revolutionaries 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 New Berlin. The average income tax rate is 91.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Revolutionary economy, worth 934 trillion Revolutionary Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 143,286 Revolutionary Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Some electoral districts are without a representative as they are stuck with perpetual revotes, the government is plagued with uncertainty, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, and a certain animated paperclip is enjoying his sunset years at the government's expense. Crime is totally unknown. Krantstan's national animal is the Emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is None.

Krantstan is ranked 9,073^rd in the world and 160^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,910 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
