The Cold Hearted Bastardy of ColdHeartedBastards is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Scrooge McBastard with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 38.889 billion Cold Hearted Bastards enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bastard City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient ColdHeartedBastardsian economy, worth an astonishing 20,352 trillion thalers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is a breathtaking 523,336 thalers, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,563,001 per year while the poor average 137,126, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

Tax rises are attributed to divine will, the national sporting identity is represented by a talking burger and a singing smartphone, political detractors refer to Scrooge McBastard as 'that Bigtopian puppet', and the leading national news source is 'my cousin Billy-Bob on MyFace'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ColdHeartedBastards's national animal is the predator, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

ColdHeartedBastards is ranked 1,468^th in the world and 3^rd in Gatesville Inc for Most Beautiful Environments, with 4,269.22 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
