The United Kingdom of Korbu Tribes is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Peter Hill with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-working, devout population of 5.157 billion Korbis 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Korbuton. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.9%.

The Korbu Tribesian economy, worth 315 trillion Buroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Trout Farming, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,181 Buroes, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

The "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture, the hit new medical TV show "Home" prominently features the brand of painkiller the lead doctor is addicted to, songwriters compete to see who can come up with the most blasphemous lyrics, and machine gun nests are the latest must-have gardening trend. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korbu Tribes's national animal is the elephant, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Korbu Spiritual.

Korbu Tribes is ranked 87,684^th in the world and 5^th in Aeterna Regnum for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,669.12 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
