The Federation of Corollian Space Bandits is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by President Snow with an iron fist, and renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.692 billion Corollian Space Banditsians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Battlestation Gatlantica. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Corollian Space Banditsian economy, worth a remarkable 3,574 trillion credits a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 281,602 credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

The population's jaw muscles put sharks to shame, the average cargo freighter spends more than half its service life undergoing safety inspections, thousands of former pirates can be found peddling knockoff products in flea markets, and an alabaster statue of an ancient cat-deity takes pride of place in the centre of Battlestation Gatlantica. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corollian Space Bandits's national animal is the Vermicious Knids, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cosmos.

Corollian Space Bandits is ranked 313,317th in the world and 24th in Hartfelden for Safest, scoring 4.53 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
