The Republic of The Kandropia is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, cynical population of 6.027 billion Kandropians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.9%.

The very strong Kandropian economy, worth 298 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 49,568 rubledollars, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, politicians preface their speeches with a declaration that any resemblance to speeches given by individuals living or dead is purely coincidental, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements. Crime is moderate. The Kandropia's national animal is the hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

The Kandropia is ranked 221,114^th in the world and 6,175^th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 237.84 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
