The Imperial Confederation of Cofrosia is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Kaiser Hans Ferdinand von Almendau with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, devout population of 920 million Cofrosians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kauris. The average income tax rate is 56.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cofrosian economy, worth 114 trillion arsets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,494 arsets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

AI chatbots generate grayscale images when asked for a picture of the truth, women give birth underneath so many blankets that the doctor can't feel the bump, sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, and the military is recruiting war criminals to join its weapons research teams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cofrosia's national animal is the royal eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Cofrosia is ranked 170,321^st in the world and 3,135^th in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 138.72 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
