The Union of Karaganam is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, national health service, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.105 billion Ganiyas are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aalthara. The average income tax rate is 92.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ganiyan economy, worth 462 trillion Chillaras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,586 Chillaras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military spending is on the increase, diplomatic cables about Leader have suddenly been very flattering, Ganiyas teach life's not worth a damn 'til you can shout out 'I am what I am', and bad punctuation has come to a full stop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karaganam's national animal is the Tiger Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Karaganam is ranked 10,904th in the world and 11th in India for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 10,579.42 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
