The Solar Republic of Cors Evia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Jonas Viesal with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, aversion to nipples, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 1.243 billion Cors Evians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Decius. The average income tax rate is 68.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Cors Evian economy, worth 211 trillion credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 169,802 credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, garishly-decorated government buildings are being hailed as the height of 'religious nouveau', recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed, and Decius is a police state during international summits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cors Evia's national animal is the rhino, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Connaissance.

Cors Evia is ranked 160,062^nd in the world and 8,759^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 41.35 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
