The Czaslyudian Federal Republic of Cossack Peoples is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Principle Chairman Anzelm Silarz with an iron fist, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, flagrant waste-dumping, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.786 billion Czaslyudians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sevyich. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 77.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Czaslyudian economy, worth a remarkable 2,856 trillion bills a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 291,865 bills, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,686,168 per year while the poor average 24,104, a ratio of 70.0 to 1.
Young men in tiny bikinis draw neither comment nor stares on the morning commute, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Principle Chairman Anzelm Silarz wears an armoured gauntlet, anti-government web sites are springing up, and orange juice has been renamed yellow juice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cossack Peoples's national animal is the Black Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Cossack Peoples is ranked 304,909th in the world and 12,925th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 15 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
