The Intergalactic Trailer Park of Coomlag is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Pizza Steve with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.829 billion Coomlacks enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbus. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Coomlagian economy, worth 314 trillion Hash Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 111,201 Hash Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 345,483 per year while the poor average 27,539, a ratio of 12.5 to 1.

On-duty Air Coomlag flight attendants are usually seen napping in first class, internet trolls are considered valiant supporters of the right to free speech, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', and blind students are at a disadvantage now that test papers printed in braille have been discontinued. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Coomlag's national animal is the Steve French, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Liquor.

Coomlag is ranked 104,192nd in the world and 10th in Eladen for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 206.23 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
