The Empire of Rototornik is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Senior-General Ivan Mordvinov with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, smutty television, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 24.631 billion 'Tornikians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miscarcand. The average income tax rate is 99.9%.

The frighteningly efficient 'Tornikian economy, worth an astonishing 20,956 trillion Torniks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 850,823 Torniks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign policy often involves bullwhips and leather, handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point, and huge explosions in the sky are a daily occurrence in the cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rototornik's national animal is the Nigershrimp, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Rototornik is ranked 2,006^th in the world and 1^st in Otoris for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 15,541 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
