The People's Republic of Keverline is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, lack of airports, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 148 million Keverlineans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 70.7%.
The very strong Keverlinean economy, worth 9.33 trillion KPWS a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Uranium Mining. Average income is 63,027 KPWS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.
Justice is blinding, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, the government has put a kid glove on the invisible hand of the free market, and ports have ground to a halt as no boat can reach them without trespassing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Keverline's national animal is the tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Keverline is ranked 221,888th in the world and 1,018th in Europe for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 432.37 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
