The Republic of Kuromistan is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Edelmund Ballstein with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 1.038 billion Kuromistanis enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Rio. The average income tax rate is 31.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kuromistani economy, worth 132 trillion Kurobucks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,721 Kurobucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tough diplomacy is often best handled with a nutcracker, signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and movie references are legally admissible in court. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Kuromistan's national animal is the white rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Kuromistan is ranked 39,899^th in the world and 2^nd in The Eternal Region for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,272.66 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
