The Capitalist Stratocracy of Orksian is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Orks with an even hand, and renowned for its vat-grown people, infamous sell-swords, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.015 billion Orksians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kebab HQ. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Orksian economy, worth a remarkable 2,821 trillion Company Shares a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 351,990 Company Shares, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,854,185 per year while the poor average 35,607, a ratio of 52.1 to 1.

Air Orksian is rumored to receive more government funding than the Orksian Air Force, whenever pilots have to bail out the government bails out their company, a newly discovered small mammal's name translates into Orksian as 'your finger, you fool', and 'Mountain Doobie' is widely regarded as the nation's favourite drink. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orksian's national animal is the Lamb, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Athiest.

Orksian is ranked 85,502nd in the world and 119th in The League for Highest Poor Incomes, with 35,607.66 Standard Monetary Units.
