The Republic of Kucia is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 15.038 billion Kucians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jekuch. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Kucian economy, worth a remarkable 3,225 trillion Kucian Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 214,483 Kucian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, the stratosphere is full of "silent but deadly" attacks from Leader's rear echelons, kissing cousins produce the heartiest babies, and pandemics are over and done with by the time it takes to pass the nation's stringent border security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kucia's national animal is the Tardigrade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kucia is ranked 1,466^th in the world and 37^th in The East Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 4,269.53 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
