The Democratic Republic of Klokland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.841 billion Kloklandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 58.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Kloklandian economy, worth 138 trillion Thalers a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 48,657 Thalers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Farting etiquette is taught in schools, space shuttles are lying silent on the runway till the Space Agency can work out how to fit a creche and a meditation room into their next spacecraft, carrots are orange, apples are red and food waste is increasing, and fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Klokland's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Klokland is ranked 61,710th in the world and 1,294th in the South Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 44,299.68 Standard Monetary Units.
