The Sunny Balkans of Kubrath is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Seth Dawnstrider with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 25.487 billion Kubrathians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sofia. The average income tax rate is 74.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kubrathian economy, worth a remarkable 3,092 trillion Groshes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,327 Groshes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

City budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty, foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that Kubrath will pay them to stop, fruit pickers with degrees in Dove psychology are a common sight, and for the sake of 'public interest' news programs tell viewers how to home-make Sarin gas bombs. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kubrath's national animal is the Dove, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kubrath is ranked 36,003^rd in the world and 2,412^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 79.47 law-abiding acts per hour.
