The Egalitarian Republic of Koranz is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Aguilar with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.326 billion Koranzians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Skoriza. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Koranzian economy, worth a remarkable 1,368 trillion euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 146,732 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nuclear physics is the most popular course at university, the nation has dismantled its entire WMD arsenal, mosh pits are a common phenomenon in President Aguilar's political rallies, and scientists are terrified of fabulous new breakthroughs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Koranz's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Koranz is ranked 27,325^th in the world and 12^th in Valaryia for Highest Average Incomes, with 146,732.21 Standard Monetary Units.
