The Empire of Keploneia is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, avant-garde cinema, and digital currency. The hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 911 million Keploneians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neo. The average income tax rate is 26.8%.

The all-consuming Keploneian economy, worth 101 trillion Spires a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 111,723 Spires, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Economists confusingly list "fusarium rot and leaf blight" as major risk factors for monetary deflation, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, and clothing with a scarlet S is popular among repentant body shamers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Keploneia's national animal is the Killer Whale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Keploneia is ranked 52,226^th in the world and 2,141^st in Lazarus for Highest Average Incomes, with 111,723.29 Standard Monetary Units.
