The Republic of Corelias is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jah Colten with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, ubiquitous missile silos, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.962 billion Corelians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Javerton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Coreliasian economy, worth 222 trillion Vistoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 113,607 Vistoes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 361,275 per year while the poor average 27,200, a ratio of 13.3 to 1.

Fancy dress parties are raided by military police for new recruits, counselors diagnose their clients with motherboard complexes, shoppers carry protractors to verify their produce, and pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corelias's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Corelias is ranked 299,620^th in the world and 214^th in Refugia for Safest, scoring 15.97 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
