The Republic of Alorca is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its avant-garde cinema, keen interest in outer space, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed population of 335 million Alorcans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Industry, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aeria. The average income tax rate is 51.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Alorcan economy, worth 30.2 trillion Rubis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 90,047 Rubis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Alorcan tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation, swings are now more popular than see-saws in children's playgrounds, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, and glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alorca's national animal is the Orca, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Alorca is ranked 25,701^st in the world and 1,346^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,089.72 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
