The Republic of Orkentine is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Gene with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.037 billion Orkentineans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orkentinia. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Orkentinean economy, worth 358 trillion Chorks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 50,945 Chorks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, the Orkentinean Intelligence Agency relies on internet search engines to know what is happening overseas, tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects, and giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orkentine's national animal is the Vampire Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Orkentine is ranked 53,314^th in the world and 1,663^rd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
