“Let your need guide your behavior.”

The Techno Union of Kelh is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Technician Kelh with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 15.027 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals is effectively ruled by the Department of Defence, with areas such as Social Welfare and Social Equality receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karthag. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology industries.

The military has had to quell a recent insurrection by uninsured revolutionaries, angst-filled teenagers are rushing off to buy government bonds for some odd reason, the people of Kelh are renowned for their nihilistic attitudes, and truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news. Crime is crippling. Kelh's national animal is the Hutt, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Imperial Trade Credit.

Kelh is ranked 211th in the region and 52,527th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
