The Holy Empire of Kaferlands is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 646 million Kafers 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 relatively small, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karmann Ghia. The average income tax rate is 20.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Kafer economy, worth 48.8 trillion KFLS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 75,517 KFLS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Leader's Dreadnought-class tankbuster limousine is said to have more ammunition than the entire Brancalandian Army, Tesco was recently named as the new national treasurer, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, and the fastest growing demographic of porn viewership is twelve to seventeen. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaferlands's national animal is the Urutau, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kaferlands is ranked 67,772^nd in the world and 55^th in Portugal for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 4,587.89 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
