The Republic of Korotis is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Madeline Courtney with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.201 billion Korotisians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belport. The average income tax rate is 96.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Korotisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,193 trillion koroes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 229,445 koroes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Every week is blindness awareness week, city rooftops are pockmarked with the shattered remains of high velocity delivery drones, a blood-red mark on the doorframe means a building must be passed over for destruction, and Madeline Courtney is strangely popular with male politicians' wives. Crime is totally unknown. Korotis's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Korotis is ranked 304,621^st in the world and 2,858^th in the Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 3.57 Obesity Rate.
