The Republic of Norad-10 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.884 billion Norad-10ians 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 medium-sized, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.2%.

The powerhouse Norad-10ian economy, worth 261 trillion francs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Information Technology. Average income is 90,705 francs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 298,925 per year while the poor average 20,608, a ratio of 14.5 to 1.

The nation's children are known for being even more apathetic and cynical than their parents, all government communication requires the imprimatur of the Truth Police, claiming to have performed the Heimlich Maneuver is a popular defense for assault charges, and textbooks are exactly twice as heavy as they used to be. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Norad-10's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Norad-10 is ranked 45,893^rd in the world and 2,533^rd in Osiris for Highest Food Quality, scoring 35.43 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
