The Cheftocratic Empire of Borkistan is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Grand Vizier Sven Borkus with a fair hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful population of 38.494 billion Borkistanis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal government is primarily concerned with Education, with Healthcare, Social Policy, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Svenopolis. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Borkistani economy, worth an astonishing 11,604 trillion Yurdi Gurdi Kroners a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 301,451 Yurdi Gurdi Kroners, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Little kids often wonder why strange grown-ups are following them around the soft play areas, sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations, tourists call Borkistani beach towns "the fine coastline", and traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers. Crime is totally unknown. Borkistan's national animal is the Boneless Chicken, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Swedish Chefism.

Borkistan is ranked 46,556^th in the world and 2^nd in Axis of Absurdity for Most Politically Free, scoring 74.76 on the Diebold Election Inking Scale.
