The Loudness of Kormus Bell is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by MrBell with an even hand, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, enslaved workforce, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 35.378 billion Kormus Bellians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Administration, although Industry, Defense, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of BellCity. The average income tax rate is 31.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Kormus Bellian economy, worth a remarkable 5,020 trillion bells a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 141,898 bells, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

A referendum must be held in order for any new law to be passed, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, street gangs rule most of the nation's major cities, and theatre may or may not be changing for the better but it is being changed for good. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kormus Bell's national animal is the owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Atheism.

Kormus Bell is ranked 291,719th in the world and 216th in Nederland for Lowest Crime Rates, with 15.74 law-abiding acts per hour.
