The Insatiable Economic Hitmen of Koffee is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by Generalissimo Espresso with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 22.784 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Education, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Metro-embassy. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Gambling industries.

Construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, the government pours millions of Guilders into rehabilitation programs annually, agricultural science is the most competitive subject at Koffee's universities, and recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koffee's national animal is the Schrodingers Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Guilder.

Koffee is ranked 191st in Wysteria and 131,269th in the world for Stupidest Citizens, scoring -49 on the Average Edu-UNtellignce® Test Score.
