The Commonwealth of South Orwelland is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Little Big Brother with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.364 billion South Orwellandians 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 large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Winstontown. The average income tax rate is 83.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South Orwellandian economy, worth 279 trillion armas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 118,332 armas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

An increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, class clowns are frequently listed among the most dangerous criminals in the nation, and it is not politically correct to suspect that a serially convicted burglar might steal again. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Orwelland's national animal is the Armadillo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Armadilloism.

South Orwelland is ranked 291,605th in the world and 879th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 2.19147776412 days.
