The People's Republic of Clarovia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Great Supreme Commander Lee Geum-ja with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.343 billion Clarovians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chollima. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Clarovian economy, worth 189 trillion reginas 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 and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 140,795 reginas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Typing Great Supreme Commander Lee Geum-ja's name into a search engine always gives zero matches, the nation's war memorials are being torn down and replaced with peace gardens, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Clarovians any less frightened. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Clarovia's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Clarovia is ranked 5,884^th in the world and 264^th in The North Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 42.51 average smiles per day.
