The Dictatorship of Ketoconazole is a small, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 32 million Ketoconazoleans 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 20.4%.

The strong Ketoconazolean economy, worth 1.87 trillion acetaminophens a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 58,469 acetaminophens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government is slowly introducing social welfare programs, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, a new generation of space-obsessed youth are convinced there's nothing out there, and there is a thriving underground gay scene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Ketoconazole's national animal is the Hmar.

Ketoconazole is ranked 27,501^st in the world and 4^th in Starbound for Most Secular, with 34.27 Atheism Rate.
