The Commonwealth of Corinthina is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Prime Minister Maria Lopez with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 20.027 billion Corinthinians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Social Policy, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Administration are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Greenwich. The average income tax rate is 40.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Corinthinian economy, worth a remarkable 2,948 trillion Corinthinian Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 147,203 Corinthinian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
People are more interested in gossip about the private lives of politicians than their policies, government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains, all astronauts are hot twenty-something models selected because they have 'the right stuff', and money that should have gone to charities is instead spent on monitoring them. Crime is totally unknown. Corinthina's national animal is the Green Sea Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Corinthina is ranked 7,993rd in the world and 222nd in the South Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 175.99 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
