The Union of Coth Pladyia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Metalag VI with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 5.417 billion Coths hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anvil. The average income tax rate is 54.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Coth Pladyian economy, worth 947 trillion Kromərs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 174,991 Kromərs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, the most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them, and tax evaders are regularly visited by agents of the Coth Pladyia Blood Tithe. Crime is totally unknown. Coth Pladyia's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Məkhanism.

Coth Pladyia is ranked 276,621^st in the world and 5,001^st in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.06 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
