The Emirate of Corbin Leetuce is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, ubiquitous missile silos, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 7.495 billion Corbin Leetuceans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 64.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corbin Leetucean economy, worth 934 trillion Monies a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,726 Monies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, the government seizes corporate assets it deems 'scary enough', and the government is a proud sponsor of the National Gaming Association. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corbin Leetuce's national animal is the Giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Corbin Leetuce is ranked 174,645th in the world and 7,861st in Balder for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 938.12 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
