The Blue Islands of Corindia is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Marcel Paquet with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and digital currency. The compassionate, democratic population of 22.408 billion Corindi love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carmo. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Corindi economy, worth a remarkable 4,191 trillion Corins a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 187,036 Corins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, edutainment video games are taking Corindia's students to the next level, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime is totally unknown. Corindia's national animal is the Marlin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Corindia is ranked 108,191^st in the world and 83^rd in The Western Isles for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 2,389.58 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
