The Blue Islands of Corindia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Marcel Paquet with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 18.705 billion Corindi are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carmo. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Corindi economy, worth a remarkable 3,478 trillion Corins a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 185,973 Corins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, edutainment video games are taking Corindia's students to the next level, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime is totally unknown. Corindia's national animal is the Marlin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Corindia is ranked 65,186^th in the world and 48^th in The Western Isles for Most Patriotic, with 27.5 flags saluted per person per day.
