The Republic of Orogonia is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Premier Akja Baker with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.986 billion Orogonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Canatiewa. The average income tax rate is 52.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Orogonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,588 trillion zequins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,514 zequins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People with dyslexia are told to tough through it, being doxxed on social media is now mandatory, pillows outnumber picket signs at most workers rallies, and scientists on maritime expeditions return with a healthy glow. Crime is totally unknown. Orogonia's national animal is the grizzly bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Orogonia is ranked 323,118^th in the world and 4,396^th in The North Pacific for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 20.11 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
