The Democratic Republic of Coldian is a huge, safe nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 338 million Coldians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Collin. The average income tax rate is 33.7%.

The all-consuming Coldianese economy, worth 34.9 trillion Collans a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 103,292 Collans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The new cheese tax is colloquially known as "wheel welfare", the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, and the government is attempting to impose a new national language on the public. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Coldian's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Coldian is ranked 98,907^th in the world and 452^nd in 10000 Islands for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 1,768.16 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
