The Capitalist Stratocracy of Orksian is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Orks with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.091 billion Orksians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kebab HQ. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Orksian economy, worth a remarkable 2,977 trillion Company Shares a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 367,984 Company Shares, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,151,934 per year while the poor average 29,536, a ratio of 72.9 to 1.

Half of the nation's import/export industry is run from a location known only as 'Dead Man's Cove', the government finds the idea of having an army to be rather distasteful, mall countdown clocks warn that there are only 364 more shopping days until Maxxmas, and nano-Lambs are the current fad sweeping the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orksian's national animal is the Lamb, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Athiest.

Orksian is ranked 136,902nd in the world and 164th in The League for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,079.86 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
