The Matriarchy of Kaffers is a very large, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The hard-working population of 101 million Kaffers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 16.7%.

The strong Kaffersian economy, worth 5.99 trillion bliksems a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 59,321 bliksems, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Video evidence of cruel animal experiments tends to be of poor quality, the term cold case has taken on a very literal meaning, colleges adhere to rigid ethnic quotas for admissions, and contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaffers's national animal is the Kappadien, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kaffers is ranked 16,615^th in the world and 214^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,746.98 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
