The Empire of Nova Corrisia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Cyrus with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.352 billion Corrisians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Durovernum. The average income tax rate is 92.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corrisian economy, worth 185 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 137,153 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

News headlines usually include p-values, tax avoidance is a serious affair, it's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves, and notable individuals are granted land and titles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nova Corrisia's national animal is the Mudkip, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Methodism.

Nova Corrisia is ranked 8,713^th in the world and 7^th in The UMNS for Most Developed, scoring 91.4 on the Human Development Index.
