The Superficial Domain of Conburn is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Queen Watteffs with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.051 billion Conburnians 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, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Radiancy. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The very strong Conburnian economy, worth 365 trillion Clout Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 72,313 Clout Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 220,300 per year while the poor average 18,420, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year, foreign leaders with unpaid parking tickets are often refused entry, corrupt paupers spend taxpayer Clout Dollars on liquor and tobacco, and the statue in the Glenn Plaza has a solar panel for a hat. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Conburn's national animal is the Canary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Indulgence in Her Majestys Sexy Radiance.

Conburn is ranked 230,438^th in the world and 8,843^rd in Lazarus for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 30.96 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
