The Free Enterprise Zone of Corporatium is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Biz Ness with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.368 billion Corpoes are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Industry, although Defense, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while Law & Order and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Syn-City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Corporat economy, worth 453 trillion Ambiguous Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 134,705 Ambiguous Credits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,219,646 per year while the poor average 1,762, a ratio of 692 to 1.

Kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, the official Corporat Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, and citizens gather eagerly to witness exotic animals being blasted out of cannons. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Corporatium's national animal is the Black Bull, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Godless Hedonism.

Corporatium is ranked 2,890th in the world and 8th in Sovereign Corporate League for Fattest Citizens, with 37.76 Obesity Rate.
