The Halcyon Commonwealth of Corpoterra is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Enzo Sharidan with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.614 billion Corporates are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Industry, with Law & Order, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rakan. The average income tax rate is 33.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corporate economy, worth 835 trillion Southern Aures a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 126,236 Southern Aures, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers are equipped with multi-million Southern Aure battlesuits, war criminals are given full state funerals, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, and the government struggles to keep up with the endless list of petrol disasters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corpoterra's national animal is the Swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Capitalism.

Corpoterra is ranked 58,816^th in the world and 955^th in the South Pacific for Longest Average Lifespans, with 81.21 years.
