The Empire of Koganei is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Uzuki Shimamura and Callie with an iron fist, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, ritual sacrifices, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.056 billion Koganeians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chōshi. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Koganeian economy, worth a remarkable 9,048 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 429,732 Yen, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

Reports of attacks by bright purple sixty-foot high spiders have recently shot up, panels from bankrupt rooftop solar companies are used as props for sci-fi B-movies, sex changes are routinely performed at Koganei's hospitals, and spotted owl meat is used as bait to lure wolves into traps. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koganei's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Paradeus.

Koganei is ranked 710^th in the world and 17^th in the South Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 552.24 kickbacks per hour.
