The Republic of Orhland is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Wowser with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 5.84 billion Orhlandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Abiet. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Orhlandian economy, worth 929 trillion Liavs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 159,140 Liavs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, diplomatic cables about Wowser have suddenly been very flattering, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and Orhlandian husbands are dead good at fathering kids. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orhland's national animal is the Green Magpie, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Orhland is ranked 315,459th in the world and 33rd in The Commonwealth Society for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring -37.82 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
