“Stop reading my motto!”

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

The PS2 Puppet of Copercia is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, fear of technology, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 12.371 billion Copercians enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The large but stagnant Copercian economy, worth 106 trillion Coperciums a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Basket Weaving industry. Average income is 8,573 Coperciums, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Posters on 'Copercian Values' advise against being proud of Copercia, disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, and radio stations are forbidden to play anything with too much drum or bass. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Copercia's national animal is the Octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is a major religion.

Copercia is ranked 171^st in the world and 1^st in Kiwicards for Most Popular Tourist Destinations, with 4,295.42 Tourists Per Hour.
