The Corporate Confederacy of Rich and Corporations is a colossal, economically powerful nation, renowned for its suspicion of poets and notable for it's barren, polluted landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 930 million are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Commerce, and Defence. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novoburg. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing industries.
The prison-industrial complex is fueled by increasingly harsher sentences for relatively minor crimes, movies and computer games are strictly censored for violence, penurious citizens die from easily remedied ailments because they aren't 'taking enough initiative', and thieves are flogged in public for their crimes. Crime is pervasive, and the prison system are overflowing with inmates. Rich and Corporations's national animal is the Tanuki, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread hunting and deforestation, its national religion is centered on money, and its currency is the Larwa.
