The compassionate population of 14.15 billion Corujenses have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bufo-Real. The average income tax rate is 74.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Corujense economy, worth 614 trillion escudo de zincoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Trout Farming. Average income is 43,413 escudo de zincoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The strong are acquitted and the weak are trampled in trial by an owl, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the Bufo-Real Film Festival recently voted 'Corujense Getting Hit By Football' as best film, and feeling like a winner comes at a price. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Arquipelago da Coruja's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Direitos de Autor.

Arquipelago da Coruja is ranked 15,306^th in the world and 22^nd in Portugal for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,678.08 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
