The Quesbian Puppet of Corvio is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Their Most-Eternal of Queen Elizabeth II with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.147 billion Corvs 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Administration, and Industry are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Werrsimburg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Corvoi economy, worth 544 trillion pouns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 105,840 pouns, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 444,279 per year while the poor average 16,389, a ratio of 27.1 to 1.

Elections have recently been reintroduced to Corvio, women who can do math in their head are burned for witchcraft, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and an increasing number of knights in shining armor suffer from PTSD. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Corvio's national animal is the bri'ish corgie, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Eternalism.

Corvio is ranked 274,964th in the world and 52nd in Quesbia Puppet Storage for Most Cultured, scoring 58 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
