The Kozáctví of Czechostan is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, infamous sell-swords, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 24.039 billion Czechostani 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 enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slajvekin. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Czechostani economy, worth a remarkable 9,100 trillion cegs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 378,592 cegs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Autopsies often involve only cursory examination, graffiti graces every city's streets, Leader has been known to make speeches in fishing waders, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime is totally unknown. Czechostan's national animal is the robin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Czechostan is ranked 292,014^th in the world and 2^nd in Absurdistan for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -50.7 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
