“Where the wants of me out weight the wants of the many”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Oppressed Peoples of Colesyistan is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 126 million Colesyistanians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Public Transport. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.3%.

The strong Colesyistanian economy, worth 5.48 trillion Monopoly dollars a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,473 Monopoly dollars, with the richest citizens earning 9.7 times as much as the poorest.

The latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, graffiti graces every city's streets, Colesyistanians struggle to cut steak with a spoon, and the tax department is having withdrawal symptoms. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Colesyistan's national animal is the Damian George, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Colesyistan is ranked 269,625^th in the world and 3,064^th in the West Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -4 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
