The Technocracy of Karazan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Fabricator-General Cael with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, complete lack of prisons, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 25.842 billion Karazanites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Telok Peak. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Karazanian economy, worth a remarkable 5,886 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an amazing 227,798 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, the comic book series 'Fabricator-General Cael and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller, high school bands practice by moonlight, and confused-looking pigeons slide gently off frictionless window ledges. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karazan's national animal is the Miniature Tarrasque, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Karazan is ranked 1,351st in the world and 63rd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 159.46 law-abiding acts per hour.
