The Most Serene Republic of Karanta is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 5.185 billion Karantans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 43.6%.
The very strong Karantan economy, worth 402 trillion Karants a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,573 Karants, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.
Anti-government web sites are springing up, some of the country's most famous photographers are animals, prison reforms have replaced communal luaus with communal loos, and young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karanta's national animal is the Blue eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Karanta is ranked 106,125th in the world and 165th in United Kingdom for Most Corrupt Governments, with 10.9 kickbacks per hour.
