The Wizards of Krys is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 20.881 billion Krysians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 48.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Krysian economy, worth 431 trillion Roxes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,646 Roxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, extreme political groups are outlawed, and military funding has been stripped back. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Krys's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Krys is ranked 186,674^th in the world and 85^th in Middle Earth for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 66.31 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
