The Rebel-topian Colony of KuriosCowboy is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Cowboy J with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, strictly enforced bedtime, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 20.805 billion Rebel-topians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Here. The average income tax rate is 91.7%.

The all-consuming Rebel-topian economy, worth a remarkable 1,908 trillion Golds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,741 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, meat is a luxury afforded only to the wealthy, and private law firms are unheard of. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. KuriosCowboy's national animal is the Redneck, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Cross.

KuriosCowboy is ranked 16,346th in the world and 2nd in Niagara for Lowest Crime Rates, with 92.87 law-abiding acts per hour.
