The Technocracy of Cobrito is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Cobri Kiwington with an iron fist, and renowned for its vat-grown people, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 18.2 billion Cobritians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Drea. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cobritianic economy, worth a remarkable 5,844 trillion Cobroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 321,119 Cobroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Anniversaries of major historical events pass unnoticed, wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities, cremation is compulsory for the deceased, and moonshine has made a resurgence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cobrito's national animal is the Apteryx, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Cobrito is ranked 139,512th in the world and 7,342nd in Osiris for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 1,058.02 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
