The Republic of Nordesia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The quiet, industrious population of 731 million Nordesians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ekosatolen. The average income tax rate is 38.2%.

The Nordesian economy, worth 37.3 trillion Eskis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 51,086 Eskis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are forced to donate blood once every three months, snitches get riches, when electric cars arrived nobody heard them coming, and public urination is on the increase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nordesia's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nordesia is ranked 187,322^nd in the world and 6,995^th in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 31,571.38 Standard Monetary Units.
