The Necro-Cyberarchate of Kargrimmar is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Eternarch Zabuza with an iron fist, and notable for its digital currency, avant-garde cinema, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 2.322 billion Kargrimmarians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elektrograd. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Kargrimmarian economy, worth 497 trillion Krimmskets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 214,109 Krimmskets, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,243,395 per year while the poor average 17,469, a ratio of 71.2 to 1.

Aid workers deliver life-saving supplies with a devious gleam in their eyes, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Eternarch Zabuza's throne, fidgety cubicle workers play with their balls, and conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kargrimmar's national animal is the White Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kargrimmar is ranked 49,515th in the world and 432nd in the West Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,760.02 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
