The Private Military Companies of Cool Fish is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Big Mouth Billy Bass with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, avowedly heterosexual populace, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.805 billion Cool Fishians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bass Pro Shops Pyramid. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Cool Fishian economy, worth 285 trillion Fishing Lures a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 158,299 Fishing Lures, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 897,475 per year while the poor average 13,651, a ratio of 65.7 to 1.

The government strictly regulates whale harvest quotas, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', urban entrepreneurs are busy introducing cockroaches into restaurant kitchens, and young men in tiny bikinis draw neither comment nor stares on the morning commute. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cool Fish's national animal is the Largemouth Bass, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Fishing.

Cool Fish is ranked 241,196^th in the world and 136^th in Caer Sidi for Best Weather, with -91 Meters Of Sunlight.
