The The Sith state of Nordenis 4 is a huge, genial nation, ruled by The Mothman with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 874 million Nordenis 4ians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Defense, with Spirituality, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 46.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Nordenis 4ian economy, worth 66.3 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 75,839 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Pet owners make sure their dogs wear diapers, the big red machine has ground to a halt, the "swords to plowshares" policy has created a generation of farmers that can kill a yak from 200 yards away, and polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nordenis 4's national animal is the turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Nordenis 4 is ranked 81,322^nd in the world and 14^th in THE W0RLD for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,211.4 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
