The Republic of Ordia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Marko Jánosík with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 23.707 billion Ordians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Public Transport, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ludnow. The average income tax rate is 66.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Ordian economy, worth 910 trillion Francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,408 Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Almost all of Ordia's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, and the nationalized auto industry is adept at making durable little cars nobody wants to drive. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ordia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Eastern Orthodox.

Ordia is ranked 116,971^st in the world and 2^nd in New Atlas for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
