The Federal Republic of Countesia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by James Emmanuel with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.639 billion Countesians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbem City. The average income tax rate is 29.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Countesian economy, worth 307 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 116,480 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The same 2639 social media bloggers always loudly and immediately agree with James Emmanuel's every word on Twitcher, armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, the military has gone fission for more funding, and the navy's new flotilla is gonna be a thrilla. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Countesia's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Countesia is ranked 41,976^th in the world and 474^th in 10000 Islands for Most Pacifist, with 104.11 Cheeks Turned Per Day.
