The Grand Norse Empire of Khuravia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Niklas II with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, anti-smoking policies, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.165 billion Khuravians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Keiservik. The average income tax rate is 51.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Khuravian economy, worth a remarkable 5,569 trillion silvurmarks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 263,135 silvurmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, the government seizes all major gold finds, foreign governments are looking into weaponizing the infamous Khuravian bee, and the fastest growing demographic of porn viewership is twelve to seventeen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khuravia's national animal is the great raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Northern deism.
Khuravia is ranked 9,822nd in the world and 147th in Europe for Lowest Crime Rates, with 101.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
