The Best Nation in the World of Orcuo is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme OverLord with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.113 billion Orcuans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Imperial Citadel. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Orcuian economy, worth a remarkable 1,743 trillion Bureau Administered Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 340,987 Bureau Administered Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Requests to "pass the salt" are supported by tank divisions, Orcuo is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project, and the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orcuo's national animal is the Octopus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Blue Blood Unity.

Orcuo is ranked 158,583rd in the world and 3,725th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 528.97 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
