The Federative Republic of Torrocca is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President JLK Gene Hemlin with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The humorless, devout population of 24.792 billion Torroccans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mariania. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Torroccan economy, worth a remarkable 3,973 trillion Torroccan Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 160,258 Torroccan Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Movie producers send film critics wads of cash in their morning newspapers in anticipation of gushing praise, populations of two-headed Torroccan Sun Eagles have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, slackers at work are told to "crack on with it", and glamping Torroccans won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Torrocca's national animal is the Torroccan Sun Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Torrocca is ranked 7,854th in the world and 439th in Lazarus for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,480.13 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
