The United Socialist States of Korinah is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rodney Windsor with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.142 billion Korinans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Korina City. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Korinahian economy, worth a remarkable 1,517 trillion Korins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 124,990 Korins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, the government has heavily invested in badly drawn monkeys, and parking's carefree without parking car fees. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korinah's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Korinah is ranked 289,116th in the world and 11,137th in Balder for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -22.73 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
