The Dragon lovers of Kurtwal is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Filiard the Bold with an even hand, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 7.204 billion Kurtwalians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Denikub. The average income tax rate is 72.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Kurtwalian economy, worth 948 trillion wallens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 131,659 wallens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government sends submarines to retrieve bodies from shipwrecked submarines, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, ticket touts are blamed for the downfall of communism, and the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments. Crime is totally unknown. Kurtwal's national animal is the dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Spoonism.

Kurtwal is ranked 8,798^th in the world and 22^nd in Karma for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,967.17 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
