The Posadist Democratic Republic of Korelskia is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by the Council of People's Defense with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 833 million Korelskians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Marxtopia. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Korelskian economy, worth 105 trillion credit points a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 126,432 credit points, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, whipping posts and lashes have been transferred to the Historical Museum of Korelskian Embarrassments, the national census includes an opt-in to join the government-run dating service, and Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korelskia's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Korelskia is ranked 260,862nd in the world and 440th in 10000 Islands for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -4.1 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
