The Solidarity of Kurgao is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Pengulo Mason Walker with an even hand, and notable for its digital currency, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 1.927 billion Kurgaoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Phomantsohitra. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kurgaoan economy, worth 307 trillion Rials a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 159,809 Rials, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kurgaoans are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, outdoor parties in Phomantsohitra are all the rave, a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Kurgaoans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kurgao's national animal is the Coconut Octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Kurgao is ranked 2,890th in the world and 37th in The Communist Bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 712.65 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
