The Federated Regions of Konolas is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Rodya Voronin with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 4.009 billion Konolasians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Igorgrad. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 85.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Konolasian economy, worth 636 trillion Tyns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 158,822 Tyns, with the richest citizens earning 7.6 times as much as the poorest.

Rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers, citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, tax assessment offices double as polling stations, and literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Konolas's national animal is the Two-Headed Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Cristianity.

Konolas is ranked 18,559^th in the world and 997^th in The North Pacific for Most Popular Tourist Destinations, with 1,409.41 Tourists Per Hour.
