The Kingdom of Custos Cohors is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Queen Alicia Diona with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 23.484 billion Custos Cohorsians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Guardia City. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Custos Cohorsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,216 trillion Yilas a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 51,793 Yilas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Queen Alicia Diona is frequently seen begging critics to stop insulting the government, trust-fund babies line up for places in community college, it ain't easy to be green enough to be imported into Custos Cohors, and 1% of global paper production is bound for the National Archive. Crime is totally unknown. Custos Cohors's national animal is the Kitten, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Custos Cohors is ranked 326,114^th in the world and 133^rd in La Hira for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -16.19 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
