The Technocracy of Karazan is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Fabricator-General Cael with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 25.911 billion Karazanites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

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 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Karazanian economy, worth a remarkable 5,912 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 228,183 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, the Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue", Karazan's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and military officers are given medals for disobeying orders. 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 114,639^th in the world and 2,369^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,277.91 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
