The Empire of Rototornik is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Stanislav Zelko with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, sprawling nuclear power plants, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 17.766 billion 'Tornikians 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miscarcand. The average income tax rate is 99.4%.

The frighteningly efficient 'Tornikian economy, worth an astonishing 15,041 trillion Torniks 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 Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. 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 846,631 Torniks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, the government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, and bread-gangs raid restaurant waste bins to stockpile uneaten rolls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rototornik's national animal is the Nigershrimp, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Rototornik is ranked 188,296^th in the world and 19^th in Greater Ixnay for Fattest Citizens, with 6.89 Obesity Rate.
