The Blessed Outcome of Kothica is a gargantuan, genial nation, renowned for its public floggings, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 16.079 billion Kothicans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Kothican economy, worth a remarkable 1,136 trillion somethings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 70,699 somethings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tetris has been banned for its graphic violent content, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, the government mails weekly updates on the new anti-junk mail laws to every citizen, and census workers are having a hard time figuring out who is actually living in Kothica after the ban on emigration was lifted. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kothica's national animal is the something else, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kothica is ranked 231,226^th in the world and 1^st in Entropy for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 22,482.48 Standard Monetary Units.
