The Rockonomic Kingdom of Death of Khastovia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by John Khastovia III with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, irreverence towards religion, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.124 billion Khastovians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Acumulo de Capital Inicial. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Khastovian economy, worth 170 trillion Rolling Stonks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 151,862 Rolling Stonks, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,133,885 per year while the poor average 5,943, a ratio of 190 to 1.
Aristocratic family trees are beginning to resemble tumbleweeds, oddly patriotic flash mobs spontaneously sing the national anthem, teach an angler how to phish and he can make a living, and wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Khastovia's national animal is the Enter businessman, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Khastovia is ranked 60,372nd in the world and 18,143rd in Chicken overlords for Most Extreme, scoring 29.33 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
