The Infantry Unit of 2nd Bataljon is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Steinar Dahl with a fair hand, and renowned for its parental licensing program, compulsory military service, and ban on automobiles. The hard-working, democratic population of 18.715 billion Norwegians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oslo. The average income tax rate is 19.3%.

The powerhouse Norwegian economy, worth a remarkable 1,095 trillion Kroner a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,542 Kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

The price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art, being nicknamed "Orange Face" has done Steinar Dahl's credibility no favours, and well-off serial killers write monthly checks to avoid jail time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. 2nd Bataljon's national animal is the Elg, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Church of Norway.

2nd Bataljon is ranked 61,152^nd in the world and 257^th in Artificial Solar System for Highest Food Quality, scoring 30.46 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
