The Corporate States of Cossmania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Board President Robert Morton with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, unlimited-speed roads, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.512 billion Cossmanians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Delta City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Cossmanian economy, worth a remarkable 7,629 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 390,999 Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,655,245 per year while the poor average 3,606, a ratio of 1,013 to 1.

Teddy bear James Dean (aka "the Rebel Without the Claws") helps convince kids that candy cigarettes are cool, psychological disorders are a taboo subject, sales of trenchcoats are on the rise, and a recent political speech drew the ire of nerds everywhere after the speaker claimed that Darth Vader was Harry Potter's father. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cossmania's national animal is the Honey Badger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Hero Worship.

Cossmania is ranked 244,810^th in the world and 113^th in The Alliance of Dictators for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1.76 Pounds Of Wildlife Per Square Mile.
