The Watchmen of Rorschach is a behemoth, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 51.36 billion Rorschachians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of South Bend. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Rorschachian economy, worth a remarkable 4,007 trillion pounds of flesh a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 78,027 pounds of flesh, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Murder victims' families receive windfall payouts when the murderers are executed, toddlers are wielding machine guns in the name of national defense, birth rates have hit an all-time low, and Rorschach has designated South Bend as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rorschach's national animal is the buzzard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Rorschach is ranked 11,236^th in the world and 10^th in Texas for Safest, scoring 118.4 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
