The 😈😈 Lucky Christmas 😈😈 of Colmaijo is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Santa Claus with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 5.635 billion Colmaijoans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrasil. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Colmaij economy, worth 622 trillion Candy Cane Gold Bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 110,544 Candy Cane Gold Bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield, elections have recently been reintroduced to Colmaijo, translators have been hired to deal with the varying regional accents during national political debates, and criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Colmaijo's national animal is the Grizzly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Colmaijo is ranked 28,934th in the world and 15th in RGBN for Most Patriotic, with 39.26 flags saluted per person per day.
