The Commonwealth of Kond Mex Ethostorgel is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 316 million Kond Mex Ethostorgelians 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 Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Panem. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.3%.

The all-consuming Kond Mex Ethostorgelian economy, worth 31.1 trillion marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is 98,312 marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is relieved that all of the recent madness has finally come to an end, government fact-checkers use surprising amounts of high explosive, the government seems embarrassed to be seen governing, and businessmen walk out of meetings halfway because their shift is over. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kond Mex Ethostorgel's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kond Mex Ethostorgel is ranked 205,496^th in the world and 7,779^th in The East Pacific for Highest Drug Use, scoring 31.2 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
