The Colony of Psychorea is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, conspicuous electricity pylons, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.347 billion Psychoreans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Psychorean economy, worth a remarkable 6,095 trillion Skulls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 537,209 Skulls, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens who don't follow a major religion are closely monitored for signs of self-harm, birdsong in the mountains has to be loud enough to drown out nearby jackhammers, hit TV show 'The eXecution Factor' is a critical success, and it's best not to ask what goes into Psychorea City Crispy Fried Tofu's secret blend of herbs and spices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Psychorea's national animal is the Man, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Psychorea is ranked 2,653^rd in the world and 60^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 134.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
