The Itchy Red Patch of Norvikeland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Peoples Person of Odin with an even hand, and notable for its strictly enforced bedtime, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 44.354 billion Norvikelandingers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 93.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Norvikelandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,934 trillion vikadollars a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 88,709 vikadollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been recorded, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, crooks and people with too many kids are being kicked out of the country, and hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Norvikeland's national animal is the purple clad minotaur, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Norvikeland is ranked 277,762^nd in the world and 44^th in Wysteria for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.68 kickbacks per hour.
