The Glorious Peoples' Republic of Khalite is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Father with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 26.255 billion Khalite are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Janjing. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Khalite economy, worth an astonishing 21,285 trillion woolongs a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is a breathtaking 810,725 woolongs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,988,054 per year while the poor average 94,114, a ratio of 42.4 to 1.

Students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, builders across Khalite are blocked up with orders for new public loos, and new mothers can pay for their weekly grocery shop with a bottle of breast milk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khalite's national animal is the bearcat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Khalite is ranked 178th in the world and 3rd in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 20,957.39 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
