The Emirate of Corbin Leetuce is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its soft-spoken computers, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.82 billion Corbin Leetuceans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 52.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Corbin Leetucean economy, worth 677 trillion Monies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 116,417 Monies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile, all industry is owned and run by the government, citizens must inform the government each time they have a haircut, and nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corbin Leetuce's national animal is the Giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Corbin Leetuce is ranked 271,555th in the world and 9,947th in Balder for Most Primitive, scoring -251.09 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
