The Anthrostate of Korwin is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Consul MakIlle with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 17.172 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ashkiln. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Korwinian economy, worth a remarkable 4,946 trillion liens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 288,029 liens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Representatives soak in mineral pools at the new capitol building day spa, the government has solemnly sworn not to look up other nations' internet browsing history if the favor is returned, the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools, and Korwinians submit requests for a date in writing with an enclosed RSVP card. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korwin's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Korwin is ranked 99,740^th in the world and 79^th in Forest for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,266.48 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
