The Free Republic of Kilpatricka is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Ian Kay with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.175 billion Kilpatrickites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rhodes City. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kilpatrickan economy, worth 974 trillion Kilpatrimarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 188,394 Kilpatrimarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Third world countries are rich in "I Love Rhodes City" t-shirts, hackers post hourly updates on international summits, students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, and radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion. Crime is totally unknown. Kilpatricka's national animal is the Elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kilpatricka is ranked 304,277^th in the world and 4,105^th in the South Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.48 kickbacks per hour.
