The Armed Republic of Borkmaster is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by 天月-あまつき- with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, unlimited-speed roads, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.71 billion Borkmasterians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bork City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Borkmasterian economy, worth a remarkable 3,698 trillion dogecoins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 315,879 dogecoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, the army consists of only generals and grunts, and hot dogs have been renamed lukewarm pigs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Borkmaster's national animal is the doge, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Borkmaster is ranked 306,194th in the world and 11,602nd in Osiris for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -16.2 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
