The Best Nation in the World of Orcuo is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme OverLord with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.082 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 1,728 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 340,060 Bureau Administered Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, vacationing Orcuans expect to be treated as royalty, citizens have reported seeing strange rays of light emanating from the moon, and politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads. 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 191,904th in the world and 4,730th in the Rejected Realms for Most Primitive, scoring -77.08 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
