The Armed Republic of Cosmic Garou is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, compulsory gun ownership, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 357 million Cosmic Garouans 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 medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Spirituality, Welfare, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.2%.

The strong Cosmic Garouan economy, worth 30.0 trillion Dead Baldies a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Gambling. Average income is 83,943 Dead Baldies, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 269,342 per year while the poor average 19,837, a ratio of 13.6 to 1.

Society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, the government has returned all business to private ownership, and people who have lived their entire lives in Cosmic Garou are shocked to discover that they are not citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cosmic Garou's national animal is the Nebula, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cosmic Garou is ranked 76,161st in the world and 1st in The Boxing Ring for Most Patriotic, with 21.72 flags saluted per person per day.
