The Colony of K45 is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning beaver population. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.381 billion K45ians 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The very strong K45ian economy, worth 75.1 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Information Technology. Average income is 54,348 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 157,399 per year while the poor average 14,871, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

Policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence' and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. K45's national animal is the beaver.

K45 is ranked 119,864^th in the world and 25^th in APA for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,761.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
