The Incorporated States of Coards Coremstrus is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Napoleon Bonaparte with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.718 billion Coards Coremstrusians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krastol. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Coards Coremstrusian economy, worth 250 trillion Pebbles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 145,900 Pebbles, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 732,057 per year while the poor average 16,291, a ratio of 44.9 to 1.

Racial supremacists have a burning desire to deal with immigrants, the church encourages double-dipping, EpiPen sales have skyrocketed, and descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Coards Coremstrus's national animal is the Monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Bonapartism.

Coards Coremstrus is ranked 34,700th in the world and 1st in Union of Cavalier States for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 6,361.2 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
