The Colony of Karietown is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President James T Green with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate population of 1.722 billion Karietownians 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 Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karietown. The average income tax rate is 81.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Karietownian economy, worth 198 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 115,498 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, it's often raining men (hallelujah) in Karietown, giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, and things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karietown's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Karietown is ranked 7,262^nd in the world and 339^th in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 15,483.8 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
