The Democracy of Northern Guyeds Koblinge is a massive, safe nation, ruled by välvilja with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.073 billion Northern Guyeds Koblingeans 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, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ouverset. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Kobliean economy, worth 472 trillion pesos 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 153,788 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists need only sign on the dotted line to become citizens, enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, halberds are common 18th birthday presents, and mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Northern Guyeds Koblinge's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Northern Guyeds Koblinge is ranked 4,808^th in the world and 136^th in The East Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,395.96 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
