The Great Kingdom of Khlachten is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by His Royal Highness Chester Hendricks with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.129 billion Khlachtenians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Industry, with Education, Defense, and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hamingcombe. The average income tax rate is 54.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Khlachtenian economy, worth 157 trillion Khlacht Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 139,760 Khlacht Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, school lockers are filled with fancy underwear, and children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khlachten's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Angels of Khlachten.

Khlachten is ranked 40,333^rd in the world and 176^th in Conch Kingdom for Healthiest Citizens, with 6.66 bananas ingested per day.
