The Republic of Kulochia is a huge, orderly nation, remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 567 million Kulochians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hegali. The average income tax rate is 78.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Kulochian economy, worth 54.5 trillion Lebers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Average income is 96,204 Lebers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The 'sing-a-long with Leader' album is a popular souvenir, trade is bringing a wide selection of strange resources and technologies into Kulochia although importers have the highest mortality rate in the nation (Kulochia has found 2 easter eggs), the hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, and players panic as they discover the newest chain can reset their populations and even delete their nations (Kulochia has found 2 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kulochia's national animal is the Kulochian lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kulochia is ranked 143,065^th in the world and 2^nd in Afghanistan for Most Extreme, scoring 19.6 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
