The District of Codringdon is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by privy council chairman with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 36.086 billion Codringdonians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.9%.

The thriving Codringdonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,871 trillion Juno aurums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 51,862 Juno aurums, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 154,204 per year while the poor average 13,675, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Codringdon's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, Codringdon has designated District City as its capital city, Privy council chairman has just been declared ruler of Codringdon in an international press conference, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is moderate. Codringdon's national animal is the quick pink fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Codringdon is ranked 232,444^th in the world and 5^th in Virgin Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
