The Icecream Kingdom of The Orc is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King Orc with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, keen interest in outer space, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.847 billion Orcs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orc Town. The average income tax rate is 36.2%.
The strong Orcish economy, worth 732 trillion Pretty Stoneses a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,801 Pretty Stoneses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.
All statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers, lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, citizens wishing to be parents must undertake a series of gruelling tests to evaluate their capabilities, and foreign lack of enthusiasm for Orcish nose-flute disco metal is seen as a reasonable casus belli. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Orc's national animal is the Flying Monkey and its national religion is Bahgtru.
The Orc is ranked 32,526th in the world and 1,208th in Osiris for Most Primitive, scoring 68.88 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
