The Cosmic Karma of Kaminkow is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 32.104 billion Kaminkowians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 74.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Kaminkowian economy, worth a remarkable 3,501 trillion blasting caps a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 109,069 blasting caps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

It is against the rules of boxing to hit above or below the belt, the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, the majority of the country's traffic wardens have been sacked overnight, and surprising numbers of poor people are protesting against taxing the rich. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kaminkow's national animal is the buzzard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Kaminkow is ranked 221,908th in the world and 10th in Train Station for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.95 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
