The Federation of Kodea is a very large, genial nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working population of 443 million Kodeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 24.2%.

The Kodean economy, worth 24.0 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,089 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The clock on unfettered access to social media is ticking, thousands of former welfare recipients are in a revolutionary uproar as the rest of society is enjoying a hefty tax break, political clichés like "band-aid solutions" and "adrenaline shots to the economy" are headed for the dumpster, and falcons with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kodea's national animal is the falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kodea is ranked 181,761^st in the world and 888^th in Europeia for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 24.15 Effective Tax Rate.
