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

The People's Republic of The Kop is a small, genial nation, renowned for its devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 20 million Kopites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 49.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The fair Kopite economy, worth 722 billion quid a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,102 quid, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bris parties are all the rage, mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined, the government prefers to kill off its enemies by peaceful means, and the government invades its allies more than its enemies. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Kop's national animal is the liverbird.

The Kop is ranked 81,675^th in the world and 6^th in New Free Federation Conglomerate for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50.99 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
