The Free Land of CoIN is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 12.397 billion CoINs have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 9.8%.

The strong CoINian economy, worth 788 trillion CoINs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 63,576 CoINs, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, and criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids. Crime is well under control. CoIN's national animal is the penguin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

CoIN is ranked 191,889^th in the world and 8,459^th in Balder for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 330.84 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
