The Republic of Corestis is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 6.613 billion Corestisians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Spirituality, with Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Industry aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.2%.

The very strong Corestisian economy, worth 363 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 54,904 bitcoins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 214,800 per year while the poor average 9,560, a ratio of 22.5 to 1.

Military spending recently hit a new high, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, Harry Potter books are banned, and the "boy who cried wolf" policy makes sick people reluctant to call an ambulance. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Corestis's national animal is the beaver, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Corestis is ranked 162,759^th in the world and 1^st in Realms of Taron for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
