The Klingon Empire of Kronos The Klingon Home Planet is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Gowron with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, rampant corporate plagiarism, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.687 billion Klingons 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Administration receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of First City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.5%.
The powerhouse Klingon economy, worth a remarkable 1,030 trillion Darseks a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 106,375 Darseks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 379,886 per year while the poor average 21,404, a ratio of 17.7 to 1.
Election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, the sidewalk is used as an overtaking lane by city drivers, mouldy bread is served as an appetizer in many restaurants, and corporations have to consult a fifty-page "sanctions spreadsheet" to determine which countries they are allowed to do business with. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kronos The Klingon Home Planet's national animal is the Targ, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Honor.
Kronos The Klingon Home Planet is ranked 291,492nd in the world and 167th in United Earth Space Probe Agency for Lowest Crime Rates, with 18.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
