The Most Laziest Confederation of Cold Edge is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by The LDPCE Party with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 7.355 billion Japanese Russians and Koreans 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tokyo IV. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient cold edge citizen economy, worth a remarkable 1,577 trillion Yen-Won-Rubles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 214,412 Yen-Won-Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, starving citizens are offered nuclear pasta, the nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, and there's never a spare chair in the retirement home. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cold Edge's national animal is the Akita Inu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Cold Edge is ranked 279,088^th in the world and 786^th in Council of Asia for Least Corrupt Governments, with 71.55 percentage of bribes refused.
