The Anthrostate of Korwin is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Consul Kagan with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.248 billion Korwinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ashkiln. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Korwinian economy, worth 943 trillion liens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 179,691 liens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, the new one lien coin also makes a handy throwing-star, the carbon footprint falls along with the human footprint during war, and anti-government demagogues have a devil of a time evading authorities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korwin's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Korwin is ranked 45,864^th in the world and 353^rd in NationStates for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 225,120 Standard Monetary Units.
