The Esoteric Space Atheocracy of Kophee23 is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by the Mind with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, zero percent divorce rate, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 7.423 billion Ůųs are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Citadel. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ůų economy, worth a remarkable 1,245 trillion ambars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 167,745 ambars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Mind has no checks and balances after the upper house was abolished, elections are won by the candidate who makes the best 'yo mama' jokes, the military has had its funding stripped back as the nation seeks a smaller role in international politics, and research to reduce famine is defunded by a one percent margin vote. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kophee23's national animal is the arugula, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Cult of Athyys.

Kophee23 is ranked 260,403rd in the world and 16th in OrangeJuice for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.48 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
