The Empire of Corgivale is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Leonidas with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 5.627 billion Corgivaleans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lexington. The average income tax rate is 79.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corgivalean economy, worth 786 trillion Petals a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 139,688 Petals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is relieved that all of the recent madness has finally come to an end, trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, the Corgivalean delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", and builders across Corgivale are blocked up with orders for new public loos. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corgivale's national animal is the Corgi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mosuraism.

Corgivale is ranked 13,443^rd in the world and 1^st in fellowship of the wyrms for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,515.93 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
