The Loquacious Bodacious Colony of Kumquat Cove is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Tangerina Pulusan with a fair hand, and notable for its closed borders, museums and concert halls, and national health service. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 21.956 billion Kumquat Coveans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Environment, although Industry and Public Transport are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lychee. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Kumquat Covean economy, worth a remarkable 3,223 trillion juuts a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 146,794 juuts, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 420,279 per year while the poor average 40,816, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.

Tangerina Pulusan's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption, and the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Kumquat Cove's national animal is the aye aye, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kumquat Cove is ranked 284,657th in the world and 29th in Libertatem for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -13.78 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
