The Great and Glorious Qaganate of The Green Horde is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Suubal Khan with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, lack of airports, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.749 billion Orcs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nogoorqbaliq. The average income tax rate is 45.9%.

The very strong Orcish economy, worth 588 trillion soyoos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,390 soyoos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, it turns out you can put a price on sporting integrity, the military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings", and unwary hikers climbing the bluffs of Mount Nogoorqbaliq make great practice for foreign snipers. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. The Green Horde's national animal is the wholly rhino, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Gipyerism.

The Green Horde is ranked 29,671^st in the world and 2^nd in The Forgotten Lands for Most Cultured, scoring 79 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
