The Republic of Kucia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and national health service. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.146 billion Kucians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jekuch. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Kucian economy, worth a remarkable 1,667 trillion Kucian Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 204,753 Kucian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', lavish state dinners in Jekuch are the state's leading budgetary expenditure, and signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kucia's national animal is the Tardigrade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kucia is ranked 239,868^th in the world and 8,286^th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -23.31 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
