The Socialist Federal Republic of Rorlenland is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Klara Lehmbruck with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate population of 9.904 billion Rorlenians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

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

The frighteningly efficient Rorlenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,761 trillion Rorlenian Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 177,836 Rorlenian Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams, the nation has nearly as many history museums as Rorlenians, dynamite sales and concert audiences are booming, and weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rorlenland's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Rorlenland is ranked 2,345^th in the world and 43^rd in The Leftist Assembly for Nicest Citizens, with 68.08 average smiles per day.
