The Republic of Orogonia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Premier Akja Baker with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.798 billion Orogonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Koojoka. The average income tax rate is 42.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Orogonian economy, worth 866 trillion flekkers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,432 flekkers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, there are no more heroes any more, and the housing market has collapsed like an overbaked Brancalandian souffle. Crime is totally unknown. Orogonia's national animal is the grizzly bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Orogonia is ranked 3,805^th in the world and 163^rd in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 62.96 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
