The Blue Islands of Corindia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Lindsay Abelló with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, otherworldly petting zoo, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.083 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carmo. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corindi economy, worth a remarkable 1,705 trillion Corins a year, is 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 187,812 Corins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenagers performing appendectomies on their friends has become a popular schoolyard prank, welfare funding has recently gone through the roof, treason is relative, and cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high. Crime is totally unknown. Corindia's national animal is the Marlin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Corindia is ranked 70,734^th in the world and 112^th in The Western Isles for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
