The Republic of OF Corbin Carroll is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, feral children, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 2.897 billion Corbin Carrollians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 57.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Corbin Carrollian economy, worth 198 trillion baseballs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 68,569 baseballs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Protestors are soaking piles of baseballs in blood to make a point about government incomes, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, doughnut-makers claim their products are healthy because they are fortified with vitamins, and the word "sexagenarian" has taken on a whole new meaning. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. OF Corbin Carroll's national animal is the baseball, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
OF Corbin Carroll is ranked 237,866th in the world and 11,254th in Balder for Smartest Citizens, with 23.04 quips per hour.
