The State of NKwala is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of public education, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 34.134 billion NKwalans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The powerhouse NKwalan economy, worth a remarkable 1,200 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 35,172 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 239,132 per year while the poor average 1,889, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, the nation's youth is held blameless for all crimes, a major religion has been named as NKwala's national religion, and NKwala has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. NKwala's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

NKwala is ranked 201,856th in the world and 514th in Ancient Lands for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring zero on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
