The Kingdom of Nordetenland is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Pietr III with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The democratic population of 4.088 billion Nordetenlandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St-Augustgard. The average income tax rate is 63.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nordetenlandian economy, worth 469 trillion mynters a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,955 mynters, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is wading into dangerous waters, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to St-Augustgard to enjoy their national art, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, and truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nordetenland's national animal is the Dire Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Nordetenland is ranked 122,935^th in the world and 104^th in Wintreath for Largest Populations, with 4.09 billion capita.
