The Empire of Kilrany is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 29.21 billion Kilrany are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Kilrany economy, worth a remarkable 4,267 trillion Kilnis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 146,108 Kilnis, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 651,645 per year while the poor average 20,353, a ratio of 32.0 to 1.
Third world countries are rich in "I Love Kilrany City" t-shirts, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, the tightness of border controls in Kilrany leave a little to be desired, and airport announcements inform passengers that flights have been delayed because pilots are having afternoon naps. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Kilrany's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Kilrany is ranked 33,643rd in the world and 1,851st in Lazarus for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 169.28 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
