The Republic of AS-13 Kingbolt is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 2.6 billion AS-13 Kingboltians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 54.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped AS-13 Kingboltian economy, worth 52.2 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,093 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. AS-13 Kingbolt's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

AS-13 Kingbolt is ranked 104,695^th in the world and 2,578^th in the Rejected Realms for Safest, scoring 80.46 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
