The Grand Bananan Republic of Orcatortugs is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Wawa with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 11.654 billion Kturtlians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wawatown. The average income tax rate is 92.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Orcatortugan economy, worth a remarkable 2,308 trillion Stars a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 198,127 Stars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, interest rates mysteriously drop whenever the CBO Governor goes house hunting, and disadvantaged youths often commit felonies to enhance their educational prospects. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Orcatortugs's national animal is the Whale, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tortugan.

Orcatortugs is ranked 282,987th in the world and 3,607th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -13.22 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
