User:Kokotov

The Federation of Kokotov is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kokotov City. The average income tax rate is 55%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Tourism.

Anti-environmentalist protesters are gunned down without mercy, retail stores offer sales every hour on the hour, school uniforms are compulsory, and the government funds private schools for intellectually gifted children. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kokotov's national animal is the Princess, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Pokotoshov.
