The Republic of Kemetic is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 7.746 billion Kemeticians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Kemetician economy, worth 320 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 41,290 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending recently hit a new high, Harry Potter books are banned, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kemetic's national animal is the hawk.

Kemetic is ranked 304,994^th in the world and 3,999^th in The catholic military orders for Smartest Citizens, with 1.22 quips per hour.
