The Community of Korac is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 724 million researchers hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cometlight Station. The average income tax rate is 54.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Korac economy, worth 56.0 trillion credits a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 77,351 credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

There's no such thing as bad publicity, the government tells its citizens to 'forgive and forget', apprentice builders get teased for wearing hard hats, and the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Korac's national animal is the Arctic Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Korac is ranked 59,666th in the world and 5th in Greater Necanica for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 4,442.38 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
