A Corporation is a legal entity that is separate and distinct from its owners, and legally recognised from the state as such.
In practical terms, the main difference between a corporation and just a general company is that the corporation is owned by shareholders, while a company can be owned exclusively by a single individual or only a handful of individuals. This means that a corporation is more often than not a publicly traded company, but only requires specifically to be officially listed, even if it is privately traded.
Pages about companies that do not fit the above criteria are to be placed in the category Businesses instead.
