The Free Land of Orjald is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Orjald with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, avant-garde cinema, and irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 3.38 billion Orjaldians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orjald. The average income tax rate is 60.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Orjaldian economy, worth 268 trillion Aldeuros a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,509 Aldeuros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens have to identify all the polar bears in a blizzard photo in order to access their bank account, the nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, and the Orjald Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orjald's national animal is the T-Rex and its national religion is Orjald.

Orjald is ranked 40,388^th in the world and 1,371^st in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 176.34 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
