The Republic of Khanassos is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Soolfen McSoolfen with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, national health service, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.044 billion Khanassimis hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Avarkhanass. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Khanassim economy, worth 93.6 trillion Khanassim dinaris a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,653 Khanassim dinaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

War vets look after war animals, offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield, foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that Khanassos will pay them to stop, and innocent defendants often plead guilty for fear of receiving a much harsher sentence before jury. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khanassos's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Khanassos is ranked 166,698^th in the world and 9^th in Merkopa for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -1 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
