The Commonwealth of Boralach is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its national health service. The compassionate, devout population of 18 million Boralaichs are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 43.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Boralaich economy, worth 828 billion Boralmarcs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,007 Boralmarcs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire, newspapers are celebrating Leader saving over a million cats from trees, doctors prescribe videos of political debates to patients with insomnia, and the tribal zone has been opened to up to 'economic interest' groups. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Boralach's national animal is the Horned Puffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Boralach is ranked 118,422^nd in the world and 647^th in the Plains of Perdition for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 695.25 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
