The Holy Empire of Bornodia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Kompi the First with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.366 billion Bornodians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solitude. The average income tax rate is 70.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Bornodian economy, worth 130 trillion golden septims a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,173 golden septims, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Meteorologists warn of fog just past 4pm daily, the best-of-the-best athletes have been replaced by the best-of-the-mediocre, the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, and an epidemic of unpopped kernels causes movie goers to gnash their teeth. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bornodia's national animal is the Compycus Toticus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Evangelionism.

Bornodia is ranked 26,082^nd in the world and 1,175^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,011.66 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
