The Republic of Colonalia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Jake Crafter with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.775 billion Colonalians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Sutherford. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Colonalian economy, worth 406 trillion Cons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 146,429 Cons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists are forbidden to enter Native Colonalian lands, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, lobster tastes best when it is red, and earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Colonalia's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Colonalia is ranked 161,318^th in the world and 165^th in Spiritus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 7,175.03 Standard Monetary Units.
