The Republic of Kolvasa is a titanic, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 12.303 billion Kolvasans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Education, Welfare, and Defense also on the agenda, while Industry and Environment are ignored. The average income tax rate is 8.1%.

The Kolvasan economy, worth 582 trillion barrs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 47,354 barrs, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Kolvasa's national animal is the corncrake, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Kolvasa is ranked 100,616^th in the world and 24^th in Bus Stop for Largest Black Market, with 2.45 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
