The People's Republic of Korfa is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 455 million Korfans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kandia. The average income tax rate is 66.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Korfan economy, worth 30.1 trillion lirals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 66,074 lirals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers must key in their passwords every time they want to reload their weapons, the military patrols the streets in search of possible secessionists, the nation wears its high incidence of chromosomal diseases as a badge of pride, and the regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korfa's national animal is the bushpig.

Korfa is ranked 211,756^th in the world and 3,167^th in the Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
