A corporation is an artificial legal entity that must be created under the specific laws of a state or of the United States. A corporation may, with some exceptions, be owned by one or more people, by other legal entities, or by people and legal entities. Once created, a corporation is considered to have an existence separate and distinct from that of its owners or its employees. A corporation can buy, own, and sell property.
