Kohlaje

The Community of Kohlaje is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 14 million Kohleejates are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 66.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling Kohlajean economy, worth 311 billion 😌bucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 22,283 😌bucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Glossy adverts featuring baby's first puff adorn mothers' magazines, almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, feeling like a winner comes at a price, and the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kohlaje's national animal is the Millipede, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kohlaje is ranked 280,515th in the world and 5th in Thronglia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.07 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
