The Proletarian Land of Komesterra is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Anonymous with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.612 billion Komesterrans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Komes. The average income tax rate is 91.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Komesterran economy, worth 165 trillion Rosa Luxemburgs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 102,774 Rosa Luxemburgs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal to make racist remarks in public, people find it hard to relate to soldiers because of the dehumanising masks they wear, candidates make campaign speeches at the funerals of former rivals, and customs officers pretend not to hear shouts of "HELP LET ME OUT!" emerging from diplomatic bags. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Komesterra's national animal is the yersinia pestis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Komesterra is ranked 281,302nd in the world and 1,114th in The Communist Bloc for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.64 kickbacks per hour.
