The Conservative Republic of Colloppe is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Representative Ben Carpenter with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.515 billion Colloppeons are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 20.0%.

The all-consuming Colloppean economy, worth 333 trillion Copper cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,548 Copper cards, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Sports club owners are having a moneyball, Bigtopian interference in domestic elections is always democratically sanctioned, greenhouses are regularly raided by the police, and weekly religious services often resemble campaign rallies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Colloppe's national animal is the Mountain lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Colloppe is ranked 31,987^th in the world and 547^th in the South Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 82.17 on the Human Development Index.
