The United Socialist States of Kogekitekinaheigosha is a very large, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 195 million Kogians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 40.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Kogian economy, worth 8.32 trillion Okanes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Average income is 42,684 Okanes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children crying over dropped ice creams are offered high doses of experimental antidepressants, agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government, demand for gourmet white truffles is on the rise, and tax revenue is often intercepted by international accountants before ever seeing the national treasury. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kogekitekinaheigosha's national animal is the Red Fox, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kogekitekinaheigosha is ranked 105,357^th in the world and 1^st in United Authoritarians Of NS for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 63.11 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
