The Galactic Federation of Corgeia is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Sir Grada Cirrus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-working, democratic population of 6.773 billion Corgians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government prioritizes Education, with Industry and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Foxort City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Corgeian economy, worth 720 trillion corgs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 106,448 corgs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 505,063 per year while the poor average 13,239, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

Signs saying "No Poor People or Weirdoes" are common outside shops and cafés, surfing lessons include how to ward off sharks, corporate lobbying has been outlawed, and 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Corgeia's national animal is the cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Kristania.

Corgeia is ranked 143,651st in the world and 37th in Texas for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 970.32 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
