The Commonwealth of Coastia is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate population of 2.012 billion Coastians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elizabetha. The average income tax rate is 67.2%.

The strong Coastian economy, worth 133 trillion Coastian Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,162 Coastian Lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Surrogate mothers are encouraged to refer to their wombs as 'rental space', any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, and foreigners with shady pasts are fleeing the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Coastia's national animal is the Bird™, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Coastia is ranked 53,997^th in the world and 2,613^th in Osiris for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 67.24 Effective Tax Rate.
