The Insatiable Economic Hitmen of Koffee is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Generalissimo Espresso with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 20.62 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Commerce, Education, and Law & Order. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Metro-embassy. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Gambling industries.

Elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, commercial jingles have been ham-handedly forced into world renowned symphonies, and military funding has been stripped back. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koffee's national animal is the Schrodingers Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Guilder.

Koffee is ranked 6th in Wysteria and 12th in the world for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 34 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
