The People's Republic of Corrinisle is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 1.647 billion Corrinisleans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 79.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Corrinislean economy, worth 133 trillion Corples 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 Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 81,012 Corples, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Moonshine has made a resurgence, doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, being impolite in public is punishable by heavy fines, and animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corrinisle's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Corrinisle is ranked 175,570^th in the world and 135^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 414.74 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
