The Rijkssamväldet of Kragholm Free States is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Henryk Sebastian Pendragon with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.032 billion Kragers are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Västergard. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.6%.

The thriving Krager economy, worth a remarkable 1,126 trillion Kronor a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 93,616 Kronor, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 557,446 per year while the poor average 7,195, a ratio of 77.5 to 1.

It's not just poseurs who wear oversized sound-cancelling headphones as they walk the city streets, conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, immigrants are told to pull themselves up by their worn-out budget bootstraps, and diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Kragholm Free States's national animal is the Polar Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Lutheran Church of Kragholm.

Kragholm Free States is ranked 31,285th in the world and 1,778th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 79 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
