The Republic of KORSIYAQ is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, fear of technology, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 628 million KORSIYAQians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sakria. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving KORSIYAQian economy, worth 52.4 trillion Kors 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 Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 83,375 Kors, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

KORSIYAQians caught jaywalking often have their houses seized by the police, orphanages are closing their doors as the government forces parents to actually raise their children, foreign visitors who show an interest in KORSIYAQian politics are immediately deported, and children listen incredulously when their grandparents explain what a "running river" is. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. KORSIYAQ's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

KORSIYAQ is ranked 76,281st in the world and 1,475th in the Rejected Realms for Most Authoritarian, with 1,228.45 milliStalins.
