The Republic of Corcaw is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, ban on automobiles, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.517 billion Corcawians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corcaw City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Corcawian economy, worth a remarkable 4,097 trillion Tollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an amazing 221,279 Tollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, pro-wrestling bouts open with a legal disclaimer insisting that any violence is guaranteed 100% faked, 13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists, and students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas. Crime is totally unknown. Corcaw's national animal is the Snow Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Corcaw is ranked 76^th in the world and 6^th in The North Pacific for Healthiest Citizens, with 64.02 bananas ingested per day.
