The Empire of Koostopia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kronk with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.251 billion Koostopians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Star city. The average income tax rate is 62.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Koostopian economy, worth 379 trillion kronks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,644 kronks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

People with political aspirations study how to make balloon animals, money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them, tabloids coo over Kronk's expected child, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koostopia's national animal is the Llama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kuzco.

Koostopia is ranked 15,979^th in the world and 1^st in Da Boys for Highest Food Quality, scoring 131.16 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
