The Empire of Corsaria is a behemoth, safe nation, ruled by Empress Mataii with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 50.711 billion Corsarians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corsaria City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Corsarian economy, worth an astonishing 27,176 trillion Cors 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is a breathtaking 535,909 Cors, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Religious turf wars have caused frustrated police to pray for divine intervention, machine-peeled candied grapes come in individual packaging for the busy commuter, children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life, and Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corsaria's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Corsaria is ranked 203^rd in the world and 1^st in Katasia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 26,611.06 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
