The Murder of Corbie Land is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Johannes Corvinus with a fair hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.571 billion Corbie Landians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ailbheach. The average income tax rate is 99.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Corbie Landian economy, worth a remarkable 1,737 trillion Black Feathers 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 264,359 Black Feathers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government funds large training centres to turn Humans into functioning members of society, multiple polls have christened the newly-formed Filibuster Committee as "the least efficient government bureaucracy", the Snapgram channel "Embarrassing Baby Johannes Corvinus Pics" has made Johannes Corvinus's mom a celebrity, and citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corbie Land's national animal is the Human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Stargazing.

Corbie Land is ranked 3,035^th in the world and 42^nd in the West Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 5,190.15 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
