The Protectorate of Kolet is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning terrier population. The hard-working, democratic population of 13.234 billion Koletians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.4%.

The strong Koletian economy, worth 747 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 56,515 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons. Crime is relatively low. Kolet's national animal is the terrier, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Kolet is ranked 262,179^th in the world and 10,091^st in Lazarus for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.72 kickbacks per hour.
