The Borderlands of Torgaria is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by His Lordship Vartan with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 9.889 billion Torgarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barcarus. The average income tax rate is 79.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Torgarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,664 trillion Berks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 168,347 Berks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and it is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Torgaria's national animal is the Wildebeest, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Greek Orthodox Church.

Torgaria is ranked 32,067^th in the world and 6^th in Slavia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,449.93 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
