The ʎɯɹ∀ lɐᴉɹoʇᴉɹɹǝ┴ of Corbeil is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Victor Fortune with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 31.747 billion Corbeilians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint-Valéry-en-Caux. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Corbeilian economy, worth a remarkable 4,723 trillion talens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,782 talens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, the well-to-do in the West Pacific are never on time for important appointments, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corbeil's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Unitarianism.

Corbeil is ranked 25,163rd in the world and 233rd in the West Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 148,782.62 Standard Monetary Units.
