The Blue Islands of Corindia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Marcel Paquet with a fair hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, digital currency, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 17.151 billion Corindi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carmo. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Corindi economy, worth a remarkable 3,225 trillion Corins a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 188,049 Corins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, edutainment video games are taking Corindia's students to the next level, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime is totally unknown. Corindia's national animal is the Marlin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Corindia is ranked 288,621^st in the world and 193^rd in The Western Isles for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -22.25 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
