The Empire of Kshatra is a titanic, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The cynical population of 10.536 billion Kshatriyas are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rajagriha. The average income tax rate is 68.2%.

The powerhouse Kshatran economy, worth a remarkable 1,125 trillion Dracms a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 106,807 Dracms, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Rajagriha University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, the new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction, and one can wake up in Kshatra and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kshatra's national animal is the Shardula, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kshatra is ranked 18,380^th in the world and 1^st in Aryavarta for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,541.12 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
