The Democratic Republic of Kobagia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Gabriel Anthony Losde Bisar with an even hand, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 5.576 billion Kobagians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Merrdelle. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Kobagian economy, worth 560 trillion Bagynos a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 100,507 Bagynos, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 551,144 per year while the poor average 9,334, a ratio of 59.0 to 1.

The government has returned all business to private ownership, no-one bats an eye when 'really good platonic friends' of the same sex hold hands in Kobagia, you're only as old as you feel, and creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kobagia's national animal is the Kobagian tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholic and Kobagian Christianism.

Kobagia is ranked 15,171^st in the world and 804^th in The North Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 86.02 on the Human Development Index.
