The Grand Duchy of Karlania is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning sea eagle population. Its compassionate population of 138 million enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 13%, but much higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is led by the Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing industries.

Long arduous trials are held for the most trivial of offences, government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, and a nation-wide cull of sea eagles is in effect. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Karlania's national animal is the sea eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the ringo.
