The Federal Union of Konstantino is a huge, safe nation, ruled by President Franklin Harber with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 869 million Konstantinoans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Konstance. The average income tax rate is 47.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Konstantinoan economy, worth 90.5 trillion Royals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 104,160 Royals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events, CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, Konstance is a police state during international summits, and President Franklin Harber has just been declared ruler of Konstantino in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Konstantino's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Konstantino is ranked 54,688^th in the world and 61^st in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Highest Average Incomes, with 104,160.74 Standard Monetary Units.
