The Republic of Kucia is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful population of 7.889 billion Kucians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jekuch. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Kucian economy, worth a remarkable 1,589 trillion Kucian Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 201,514 Kucian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake, murderers with law degrees can be seen swinging the gavel in courts, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, and hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kucia's national animal is the Tardigrade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kucia is ranked 198,293^rd in the world and 7,470^th in The East Pacific for Most Devout, with 7.77 Prayers Per Hour.
