The Dictatorship of Corfad is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Dictator Johnny with an iron fist, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, free-roaming dinosaurs, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 17.768 billion Corfadians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corfad City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Corfadian economy, worth an astonishing 11,109 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is a breathtaking 625,229 Euros, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,856,144 per year while the poor average 5,625, a ratio of 1,041 to 1.

Captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, amorous nobles always bring the same disappointing gift to weddings, radio stations are forbidden to play anything with too much drum or bass, and crossword puzzles have been co-opted as a symbol of racial discrimination. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Corfad's national animal is the hell hound, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Corfad is ranked 174^th in the world and 6^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 38,554.89 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
