The Holy Empire of Kingslink is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 2.543 billion Kingslinkians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kingslink. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kingslinkian economy, worth 294 trillion Dollars 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 Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 115,721 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture, bad punctuation has come to a full stop, and government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kingslink's national animal is the Lions, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kingslink is ranked 14,116th in the world and 23rd in The Union of Democratic States for Most Developed, scoring 88.63 on the Human Development Index.
