The Democratic Republic of Ordistan is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Carl with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 20.509 billion Ordistanis 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 enormous, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ordiskill. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ordistani economy, worth a remarkable 1,900 trillion Ordis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,690 Ordis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only adults may purchase violent video games, third world countries are rich in "I Love Ordiskill" t-shirts, bike rage is all the rage, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ordistan's national animal is the Loon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ordistan is ranked 11,324^th in the world and 566^th in The North Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 152.77 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
