The Soviet Socialist Republic of Olorian is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Premier Taltos with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cynical population of 6.121 billion Olorians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andralaka. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Olorian economy, worth 900 trillion Marxes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 147,175 Marxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark, and the latest national park is visited by more sharks than people. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Olorian's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Olorian is ranked 273,524th in the world and 9,474th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 9.20566771948 days.
