During her time as Secretary of the Interior, Corgo built an icerail meant to link Cascadia's and the then [[Midwestern Union]] in March. While the Cascadian portion was fully built in a couple weeks, the MWU one was not, leading to the icerail becoming a dead end. However the rail would later be used as a connection to the USA icerail system. She built icerails connecting the towns of Silverthrone, Burns, Corgo's Pass, Arcadia, Sullivan Bay, and Husky_Coast, alongside a connection to Aylywyn's icerail that spans from Ireland to Japan. She personally made major contributions to the Seattle Project, building a hospital and a majority of the Columbia Center. She also constructed Highway 95 in May 2023, which ran north from Vancouver to Great Bear Lake.

=== Horseback Expeditions ===
During this time, Corgo went on numerous expeditions on horseback, first riding from Olympia to New York City and back, timing herself in the process. She learned to use splash speed potions as a way to boost her horse's speed, which enabled her to make one way trips well under fifteen minutes. It was on one of these expeditions where her horse Dutch III was killed, causing the aforementioned crashout at Jefferson City. Once, she attempted to trek on horseback all the way from Olympia, to the southern tip of South America and back. However, this expedition was ill-fated, and was ambushed and killed by multiple hunters in southern Argentina.
Corgo has made multiple horseback expeditions into the far north of the Americas, going through Nunavut and onto Greenland, first to sell horses to the founder of Kaalalit Nunaat. Despite being some of her longer lasting expeditions due to having to cross a multitude of straits and mountainous terrain, all of these expeditions were without incident due to the sheer desolation of the Arctic.
Corgo's most ambitious expedition took place in the early morning of March 26, 2023. At 3:00 AM EST, where she successfully circumnavigated the world completely on horseback. She first rode up from her town to the western world border in the eastern tip of Russia, and then started riding east. After reaching Labrador, she used the Trans-Atlantic bridge there to cross the ocean and onto Ireland, where she then waded into Britain and across the English Channel into the Netherlands. She rode through Europe, stopping in Berlin for a break, then went through Turkey, Iraq, and southern Iran before arriving in India, and stopping at Ege, which was a popular race track at the time. Riding east, she went through China, Korea, Japan, then crossed into eastern Russia by wading along the Kuril island chain. Finally, she reached the other end of the world border after 4 hours of trekking. To go back, Corgo went through the world border, which teleported her to 0,0 in western Africa, which she rode through the Sahara Desert, waded across the Strait of Gibraltar, and then backtracked across the Trans-Atlantic Bridge and rode back to Corgo's Pass, where her friend Beamz30 had built a finish line to commemorate her completion of the expedition. The entire expedition took seven hours to get to and from the world border, and miraculously, no incidents with hunters occurred the entire time.

Corgo would run for the presidency in the August Elections. Ten Candidates originally ran, with eight making it to the ballot, which is the highest number of candidates in any Cascadian Election. It was a very active and pivotal election, and lots of dialogue over how the country should be led from that point onward occurred. The August Election had surprising yet positive results. It was seen at the time that [[WrestlingWithGod]] would act as a contender against Corgo, however a relatively obscure candidate of the name PhantomXYZ would take a plurality of the first preference vote, however due to runoff voting, EmpressCorgo would win the elections through large amounts of final preference votes.

Cascadia was almost completely broke after the RMF steal, sitting at a low of 169 gold. However, these financial issues were partially alleviated by many donations from Cascadian citizens, and within a week the bank reached 1600G. It was decided that in order to increase revenue and create a more stable economy, the national store needed to be overhauled. A new national store under the capitol was designed by Setrus, Milgorn123, and Ravioli983, and construction was started and mostly done by EmpressCorgo herself, with some help from [[SayerQT]] and [[Milgorn123]]. Corgo set a couple goals for the Cascadian economy by the end of her tenure, such as better store revenue, saving up gold, and reintroducing Cascruit, which had been repealed under Bachinuni's Administration.

RAWRYoutube retired from the Treasury in January 2025, and no proper replacements could be found at the time, leading to a major recession, with the nation losing around a third of it's gold balance. Eventually, Corgo stepped up again, nominated for the position by President [[Farosh_]]. Throughout March, she would successfully recover the economy and turn around the depression of gold that had taken hold when RAWR resigned. It was here where she got involved in the then political turmoil in the nation, backing [[HawaiianDPG]]'s and [[GuyWithALife]]'s campaigns in March and April 2023 as a result. Throughout this period, the RDFA threshold would be raised more and more to the 6500 gold it stands at today. Eventually, burnt out under [[Moxie]]'s Administration in April 2025, she resigned temporarily, taking the position again the next term under YellowClover/Capitanfra, touting her plan known as [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TIdifQan67sfwLZKw8RWGNtegzu6lQvoQN9JzjyrHCo/edit?usp=sharing Project Prosperity] to revamp the Cascadian economy and introduce macroeconomics to the nation. However, this plan was never fully realized due to burnout, and she resigned on June 2, 2025. Her deputy Kralyerg took her position, who's continued to maintain the Cascadian Treasury since. Regardless, the Cascadian economy stayed afloat and rising throughout this time with the exception of Moxicodone's term, even with some of the highest spending the nation had ever seen.

It was also during this time in which Corgo acquired an addiction to cocaine, which she proudly still holds. It was revealed the public in an incident when she was found sharing the drug with others in Seattle. Regardless, the Cascadian economy stayed afloat and rising throughout this time with the exception of Moxicodone's term, even with some of the highest spending the nation had ever seen.
