The Reborn States of Karnea is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Masacon with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.576 billion Karneans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karnopolisian. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Karnean economy, worth 994 trillion Karns a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 178,315 Karns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, the minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, and criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karnea's national animal is the Eurasian Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No National Religion.

Karnea is ranked 4,482^nd in the world and 63^rd in Europe for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 15,741.53 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
