The Hive of Klendathu is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ysazshis with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 3.403 billion Klendathuans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brood Klendathu. The average income tax rate is 33.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Klendathuan economy, worth 120 trillion biomasses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 35,470 biomasses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ysazshis has just been declared ruler of Klendathu in an international press conference, Klendathu has designated Brood Klendathu as its capital city, some members of Parliament are illiterate, and both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Klendathu's national animal is the arachnid, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is evolution.

Klendathu is ranked 172,532^nd in the world and 24^th in NeoMajestia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,024.8 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
