The Communications Unit of Sambandsbataljonen is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Tore Nilsen with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, parental licensing program, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 23.774 billion Norwegians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oslo. The average income tax rate is 56.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Norwegian economy, worth a remarkable 2,203 trillion Kroner a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,672 Kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Black tea is only available on the black market, government employees have reverted to carrier pigeon due to never-ending virus scans, political spontaneity takes a lot of planning, and recent events have left citizens both shaken and stirred. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sambandsbataljonen's national animal is the Elg, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Church of Norway.

Sambandsbataljonen is ranked 101,929^th in the world and 25^th in Kyorgia puppet storage for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 865.83 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
