The Empire of Soroc is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Glorious Leader Winston with an iron fist, and notable for its digital currency, zero percent divorce rate, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.428 billion Sorocians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sorocia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Sorocian economy, worth a remarkable 3,915 trillion koras a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 191,663 koras, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 626,495 per year while the poor average 44,075, a ratio of 14.2 to 1.

Political activists are routinely executed, careless Maxémon Trainers have been the cause of numerous search and rescue operations, many politicians are serving jail time for minor drug offenses, and the ongoing space elevator construction project has elevated the national debt to all new levels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soroc's national animal is the miniature dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Church of Saint Winston.

Soroc is ranked 74,979th in the world and 25th in 4chan for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,782.35 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
