The Most Serene Republic of Kaiserholt is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Censor Perpetuo Elena Lampronius with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.375 billion Cives are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caer Lochweald. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The frighteningly efficient of the Holt economy, worth a remarkable 3,519 trillion Equuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 164,655 Equuses, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 939,884 per year while the poor average 13,980, a ratio of 67.2 to 1.

College students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, it takes a village to catch a criminal, protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, and cremation is compulsory for the deceased. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Kaiserholt's national animal is the Silver Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Universal Temple of the Olympian Apostás.

Kaiserholt is ranked 192,029^th in the world and 5^th in Salamis Initiative for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 488.81 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
