The Federation of Karankajarvi Lake is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.215 billion Karankajarvi Lakeans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 69.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Karankajarvi Lakean economy, worth 93.6 trillion gambles a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,022 gambles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, what's in your genes matters more than what's in your jeans, the nation's police officers are famously miserable-looking, and schoolkids say that the air doesn't taste like wee-wee any more. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karankajarvi Lake's national animal is the gamble, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Karankajarvi Lake is ranked 97,816th in the world and 160th in Lakes in Finland for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,538.99 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
