The Republic of Kavolia is a mid-sized, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 94 million Kavolians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The very strong Kavolian economy, worth 6.40 trillion Reis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is 68,034 Reis, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 257,148 per year while the poor average 12,523, a ratio of 20.5 to 1.

Citizens receive notices of disenfranchisement along with their parking tickets, foreign militias and child smuggling rings will always love Leader, male tourists tend to be fearful of Kavolia's deadly femme fatales, and every computer glitch triggers an immediate counter-espionage response. Crime is moderate. Kavolia's national animal is the Winged Lion.

Kavolia is ranked 106,120^th in the world and 45^th in The Sacred Elite for Highest Average Incomes, with 68,034.7 Standard Monetary Units.
