The Community of Cocoapowder is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 961 million Shippers 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 medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Home-Wild East. The average income tax rate is 22.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped shipping Cocoapowder economy, worth 31.9 trillion Jewels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,177 Jewels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Owning a really cute pet is grounds for immediate investigation, New Home-Wild East's iconic yellow taxis are nowhere to be seen, it's all quiet on the western front, and every week is blindness awareness week. Crime is almost non-existent. Cocoapowder's national animal is the Frisk.

Cocoapowder is ranked 181,571^st in the world and 22^nd in Dark World for Largest Black Market, with 670 billion Standard Monetary Units.
