The Ko-orenite Constellation

Population6.214 billion

The Commonwealth of The Ko-orenite Constellation is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, frequent executions, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.214 billion Constellationers 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, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 57.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Ko-orenite Constellationian economy, worth 695 trillion Koronas a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 111,867 Koronas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Pieces of iron pyrite are believed to be worth their weight in gold, Dragonflies with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped, children regularly take part in blood sports that result in extreme boo-boos, and everybody's got wood thanks to Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Ko-orenite Constellation's national animal is the Dragonfly, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

The Ko-orenite Constellation is ranked 319,700th in the world and 56th in Esportiva for Safest, scoring 6.54 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
