The Holy Constitutional Monarchy of Corgium is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Hugo Weiss with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, public floggings, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.189 billion Corgans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kosga. The average income tax rate is 44.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corgian economy, worth 333 trillion Reles a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 104,568 Reles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is well known for declaring war on other countries for suspected slights, shock troops shock enemy forces with their nudity, the country behaves just like a group of independent provinces all stacked up under a trench coat, and children of nonreligious parents are often barred from school festival events. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corgium's national animal is the Corgi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Corgism.

Corgium is ranked 29,298^th in the world and 6^th in The Embassy for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 223.24 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
