The Kafka's Domain of The Kafkaesque is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its parental licensing program, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 581 million Kafkaesques 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Babylon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.1%.

The very strong Kafkaesquean economy, worth 45.8 trillion kafkians a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 78,788 kafkians, with the richest citizens earning 9.9 times as much as the poorest.

Teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, Max Barry is this year's Miss The Kafkaesque, environmental protestors are being rounded up and taken away in sinister black vans as a massive land development campaign gets underway, and patriots insist that size does matter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Kafkaesque's national animal is the spider, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Kafkaesque is ranked 203,907^th in the world and 4^th in Defense League of Militant Convents for Most Pacifist, with 47.95 cheeks turned per day.
