The People's Republic of Karnpella is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Max with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.569 billion Karnpellans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gwaneth Gwel. The average income tax rate is 89.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Karnish economy, worth 318 trillion Manx Pounds 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is 89,107 Manx Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed, the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles', foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, and sex education has become an intricate maze of stick figures and complex metaphors. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karnpella's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is whatever you want.

Karnpella is ranked 129,293^rd in the world and 570^th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Retail Industry, scoring 1,286.3 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
