The Interstellar Commission of Kobalera is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Brienna Spanberger with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, unlimited-speed roads, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.295 billion Kobalerians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Drekogesh. The average income tax rate is 72.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Kobaleran economy, worth 533 trillion Gigakredats a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,230 Gigakredats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Kobalera Barrier Island residents anxiously await their 'Bridge to Somewhere', graffiti graces every city's streets, convicts get out of jams easily, and concussed Furred Drakeball players cannot remember their lineup position. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kobalera's national animal is the Furred Drake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Karistine.

Kobalera is ranked 10,593^rd in the world and 342^nd in the South Pacific for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 63.29 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
