The Stratocratic Republic of Porotia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Nenad Stosic with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 7.872 billion Porotians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Telograv. The average income tax rate is 89.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Porotian economy, worth a remarkable 1,079 trillion Poroes a year, is quite specialized and 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 137,169 Poroes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Community organizers have given up going door to door because nobody is home, this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's, the government keeps its thumb on the scales of justice, and people are turning themselves into worm food. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Porotia's national animal is the Porotian Spikeball, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Judaism.

Porotia is ranked 266,905^th in the world and 112^th in Fifth Empire for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 14,677.09 Standard Monetary Units.
