The Kingdom and the Church of Orange Creek is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Custodian with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, smutty television, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.968 billion Oranics are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Casablanca. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Oranic economy, worth a remarkable 3,942 trillion tremorions a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 303,981 tremorions, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Main battle tanks stalk the woods of Orange Creek in search of owls, colonial subjects have Oranic culture shoved down their throats, nuclear physics is the most popular course at university, and theatre may or may not be changing for the better but it is being changed for good. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orange Creek's national animal is the owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of Crymenathea.

Orange Creek is ranked 891^st in the world and 1^st in Institute of Cellulose for Smartest Citizens, with 239.58 quips per hour.
