The Republic of Kolloquia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Benevolence with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.029 billion Kolloquians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Legatia. The average income tax rate is 67.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Kolloquian economy, worth 194 trillion klipiis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 95,941 klipiis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Benevolence is famed for giving great back rubs, every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Kolloquian, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, and cowboys often wear wolfskin jackets to the saloon. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kolloquia's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Anythingism.

Kolloquia is ranked 240,864^th in the world and 133^rd in South Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -36.65 on the Hayek Index.
