The Kingdom of Kryval is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 336 million Kryvalians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 51.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Kryvalian economy, worth 21.4 trillion Kverds a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,776 Kverds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, the government is ignoring the latest terrorist atrocities in Kryval City for fear of causing a fuss, and radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kryval's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Kryval is ranked 136,821^st in the world and 71^st in Eladria for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 720.68 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
