The Krypton of Kr is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, rampant corporate plagiarism, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.032 billion Krians 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 minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, although Education is also considered important, while Environment and Law & Order aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Krian economy, worth a remarkable 2,762 trillion Krs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Retail. Average income is 98,563 Krs, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

The diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, most governmental positions are filled by zealous nationalists, it is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers, and adult stores are all sold out of whips. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Kr's national animal is the Kr, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kr is ranked 66,225th in the world and 20th in Christmas for Highest Average Incomes, with 98,563.16 Standard Monetary Units.
