The Grand Duchy of Norfshire is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Grand Duke Jammycount Shortfeld with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 10.023 billion Norfshiremen are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shakey-Wakeyfield. The average income tax rate is 71.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Norfern' economy, worth 961 trillion Sceats a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,886 Sceats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, the 'sing-a-long with Grand Duke Jammycount Shortfeld' album is a popular souvenir, white privilege is a real thing, and even snitches get stitches. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Norfshire's national animal is the Hog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Norfodoxy.
Norfshire is ranked 292,733rd in the world and 115th in Union of Christian Nations for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -28.04 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
