The Commonwealth of Kozmopolis is a small, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory vegetarianism, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 36 million Kozmopolitans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.0%.

The powerhouse Kozmopolitan economy, worth 2.94 trillion Kozmic Saphs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Average income is 81,796 Kozmic Saphs, with the richest citizens earning 8.5 times as much as the poorest.

Little girls are in tears as Leader confiscates their pink princess ballgowns, the hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, competing private ambulances racing to be the first to traffic accidents are a major cause of road accidents, and starry-eyed convention goers have their heads in the clouds. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Kozmopolis's national animal is the Kozmic Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Kozmopolis is ranked 246,190^th in the world and 439^th in Starlight for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 15.97 Effective Tax Rate.
