The United States of Corporate Bordelle is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.346 billion Corporate Bordelleans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Corporate Bordellean economy, worth 860 trillion Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 103,134 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 367,250 per year while the poor average 20,845, a ratio of 17.6 to 1.

Town welcome signs list corporate sponsors, the military recognizes no difference between male and female soldiers, legislation sometimes has to battle through weeks of filibustering to pass, and the morbidly obese often sell stock options on their own corpses. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Corporate Bordelle's national animal is the Money Garbage Monster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Corporate Bordelle is ranked 152,875th in the world and 109th in The Union of Democratic States for Most Stationary, with 149.8701471386 days.
