The Republic of Corcaw is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, rampant corporate plagiarism, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 22.437 billion Corcawians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Administration, with Education, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corcaw City. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Corcawian economy, worth a remarkable 5,599 trillion Tollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an amazing 249,580 Tollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Witnesses have to run a gauntlet of mob enforcers to testify at trials, the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", school teachers check the staff room for hidden webcams before complaining about rebellious students, and sharing vacation pictures requires written consent from the entire beach resort. Crime is totally unknown. Corcaw's national animal is the Snow Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Corcaw is ranked 3,139th in the world and 156th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 129.3 law-abiding acts per hour.
