The Nomadic Peoples of Kochevnia is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.932 billion Kochevnians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tovetsk. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kochevnian economy, worth 709 trillion Karas 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 119,527 Karas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, nouveau riche farmers diligently take care of their golden calf herds, the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, and autocrats are persona non grata. Crime is totally unknown. Kochevnia's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kochevnia is ranked 11,025th in the world and 25th in Thaecia for Most Cultured, scoring 114 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
