The Lean Mean Raiding Machine of Koth II is a gargantuan, genial nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, anti-smoking policies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 18.934 billion tapeworms 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.1%.
The powerhouse Koth IIian economy, worth a remarkable 1,016 trillion septoes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Gambling, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,698 septoes, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.
Well-off serial killers write monthly checks to avoid jail time, the Department of Health is snowed under by requests for crisper ciabatta and tenderer tagliatelle, rumor has it that Leader has won three lotteries in a row, and the statue in the Patton Plaza has a solar panel for a hat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koth II's national animal is the defender, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Koth II is ranked 52,522nd in the world and 790th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,741.43 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
