The Dominion of Da Orc is a mid-sized, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 56 million Da Orcians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Healthcare and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The strong Da Orcian economy, worth 3.44 trillion Golds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 61,439 Golds, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 395,984 per year while the poor average 3,851, a ratio of 102 to 1.

The military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Da Orc's national animal is the Goblin, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Da Orc is ranked 283,810th in the world and 1,739th in the Outback for Highest Poor Incomes, with 3,851.45 Standard Monetary Units.
