The United Prefectures of Noronica is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by First Prefect Trystan Alexander with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, hard-working, humorless population of 11.444 billion Noronnicans 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Nolon. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Noronnican economy, worth a remarkable 1,883 trillion Cainds a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 164,607 Cainds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, people faint regularly as they get stuck with compulsory vaccinations, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, and corporate 'hostile takeovers' now involve ICBMs and main battle tanks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Noronica's national animal is the Great White Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Presbyterian Protestantism.

Noronica is ranked 7,702^nd in the world and 21^st in The Western Isles for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,195.32 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
