The Anthrostate of Korwin is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Consul Almeida with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.826 billion Korwinians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ashkiln. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Korwinian economy, worth a remarkable 3,357 trillion liens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 283,898 liens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The working classes live and die on the fields of the farming communes, fat-shaming is now public policy, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, and producers insist that movie stars wear crash helmets in every scene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korwin's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Korwin is ranked 286,908th in the world and 843rd in NationStates for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 3,974.57 Standard Monetary Units.
