The Democratic Republic of Corbien is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Clammy McClamface with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.213 billion Corbienese love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cyrena. The average income tax rate is 84.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corbienian economy, worth a remarkable 1,281 trillion Buckets a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,936 Buckets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Clammy McClamface steals from the rich and gives to the needy, sailors spend their shore leave helping old ladies cross the street, racehorses move a lot slower these days, and ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Corbien's national animal is the Clam, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Clamydia.

Corbien is ranked 23,335^th in the world and 1,511^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.15 law-abiding acts per hour.
