The United Conglomerates of Corporoat is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Coffee Machine with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, flagrant waste-dumping, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 14.362 billion Consumers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Administration, with Industry also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bargainburg. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Corporoatian economy, worth a remarkable 7,302 trillion adverts a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is a breathtaking 508,448 adverts, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,588,104 per year while the poor average 24,284, a ratio of 147 to 1.

A shipwreck is everyone's fault but the captain's, legislation sometimes has to battle through weeks of filibustering to pass, sports club owners are having a moneyball, and the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Corporoat's national animal is the fur, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Capitalism.

Corporoat is ranked 291,726th in the world and 11th in TopCornion for Safest, scoring 1.07 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
