“Hua Xia Wei Yu Tian Xia ”

The People's Republic of Orient China is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 3.559 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orient China City. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Information Technology and Tourism.

Manual labourers must be willing to have cybernetic limbs to get a job, a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, Orient China's leader goes out to lunch surrounded by large men in dark glasses, and only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orient China's national animal is the panda , which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the yuan.

Orient China is ranked 2415th in the region and 51,648th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
