The Queendom of Cosmaland is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Queen Clara IV with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 7.949 billion Cosmians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Girltown. The average income tax rate is 69.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Cosmish economy, worth a remarkable 1,071 trillion Stars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,831 Stars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

More than one company makes the board game Monopoly, immigrants who carry knives on them are presumed to be chefs, the stacked neck-ring is this season's hottest fashion item, and young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cosmaland's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dianic Wicca.

Cosmaland is ranked 230,911^th in the world and 3^rd in The Associated States of the Oort Cloud for Largest Retail Industry, scoring -12.81 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
